“As possible” is a key concept here. They’ll want to avoid anything illegal or likely to get them sued.
You realize that there are many big companies that use Windows that have a ton of proprietary information on them, that would go completely nuclear on Microsoft if Windows started leaking that information into an AI-training project?
Microsoft has done things multiple times that were blatantly illegal, and a couple of times ran afoul of governments, yet they still did new illegal things after that - as well as going right back to doing the things they were busted for before. There’s no evidence that they are concerned with anyone suing them or ‘going nuclear’ if they aren’t even worried about nation states that have come after them before.
Those companies likely pay for the enterprise version which doesn’t have all that garbage. I guarantee you that Windows for home users is mining as much data as possible.
Sounds like a good reason to get rid of windows 😁

🤣 … best sentence i’ve seen today. +1
Yes, all these imagined outrages are definitely a good reason for that.
You can’t honestly believe that Microsoft won’t be harvesting as much data as possible with their AI search.
