    Just keep breathing in that copium, while Microsoft already specifically starts banning programs that are a curated-ish list of privacy-sensitive things to disable on windows at one click.

      So are you or are you not implying that this would be quietly enabled without explicitly prompting the user?

        They have silently switched stuff on by default before

        If they can get away with it, by maybe burrying it in page 137 of the EULA, then yes.

        I vaguely remember win 8 coming with lots of invasive features, that were able to be disabled by a application which had such lists of registry edits needed.

        Also: Microsoft backports privacy-invasive features to windows 7 and 8 Many of these have effectively hidden Customer Experience Improvement config values in “help” menu of the program.
