MS employee here (I work with data but not in Office). My opinion: I don't find this acceptable. At the end of the day, sending data to a third party without the customers awareness is a violation of trust, regardless of how narrow in scope that data might be. I'm curious to see how MS responds. There are several unanswered questions that I'd like answered. Specifically: 1. Any disputes about the factual nature of these claims? 2. If not, what is the third party doing with the data?
