Microsoft want to spy on you

Found this just now and thought i'd share.

Would you want Microsoft spying on you, even if you got that software for free? I sure wouldn't (they'd find out my secrets... lol)

 

does not surprise me!!!!

 

Nothing new.. they are on it since releasing XP.

 

oh, so in this case at least you know they'd be spying on you...unlike now where they do anyway and you just aren't aware of it.

here's me tonight:

just to run Update since there are 6 new security releases today.

hey, the only problem is that I've had to DL and install this bull crap like 3 times already since I've had this LT.

Hey maybe they want to re-validate my copy of windows again?

/rant

 

lol yeah, I get that all the time. Think they would only do it once, but nooo.

 

Gates has been spying on you since he was a 13 year old kid...

 

hey free software is free software, just joking I would hate to know my every move was being recorded

 

Think there are very few corporations that wouldnt want to spy on you if they could get away with it. Look at store loyality/ reward cards and the masses of data they collect on you there

 

and here's the kicker...

A) I have auto update turned on but it sure as he!! didn't notify me of the updates!
B) I tried the express update and it just failed, didn't tell me why...well it gave me the stupid error code or whatever which is worthless
C) it wasn't until I did "custom" update option did it show I needed to DL a worthless U/D to be able to install the U/D's!!

 

Peeping tom.

I run Linux , heavily modified 6.06 kubuntu to be exact .

 

Mr. Gates is keeping a tight pirate eye in on all you "clones" looking to workaround his validation tool.

Be careful of the DMA

 

all my copies are official...but they still make me feel like a cheap Tijuana whore every time I have to jump through their hoops!!

 

it seems fair to me. They are telling you what they gonna do and are essentially paying you (the customer). It would bother me if they were collecting data from my computer without me knowing though

 

If you have the Google toolbar..prepare to feel fully violated..

 

Keep original dude! lol

 

Well, I have two copies of Windows on the same HDD.
One is XP, and one is Vista.
i'll install this on XP, and go on with life.

 

Microsoft doesn't spy. Google does

 

Woah, old thread here...whats going on?

 

Well, I,ll say google is more big spy http://imseo.org/2008/03/search-industry/google/google-knows-too-much-about-usbeware/ hehe

 

we all know that
think about what it takes for adsense. one account too all your sites, ip logging, and so on
