I upgraded to windows 10 a few years ago, even paid for the pro version to have it in my home computer.
I remember spending more than an hour, checking every possible setting I could to reveal less data. At the end, I felt somehow happy with the situation.
A few days later, an upgrade came. I didn't notice immediately but the upgrade has reset all privacy settings to their worst value (of course, default value is the one that benefits Microsoft).
I hated that feeling. I felt betrayed, angry and powerless. This was a terrible breach if trust for me (today, I know I seem like the typical naive user but years ago, I trusted their configuration menus).
I don't accept this feeling that my privacy should be in control of a small group of individuals who have absolutely zero respect for my privacy. I guess the fact that I had actually bought the pro version purposely to benefit from more privacy influenced my experience.
I uninstalled Windows and switched to Ubuntu.
Today, my problem is Android/apple. I'd like to get rid of them but I haven't solved this problem yet...
