it is emphatically not an issue for the vast majority of windows users. There is no way to know that unless they have been presented with a viable alternative that they understand. I had a fascinating conversation a little while ago with some slightly younger friends who are very much of the digital native, smartphone-since-birth generation. They couldn't live without their social media and always-online everything. They still thought it was creepy that when they went travelling they started getting all sorts of ads about places they were going and so on because they realised it meant something on their phones was spying on them. They didn't like it, they would just tolerate it because they had no other way to stay connected to what is, for that generation, a normal life.
