Windows 10 - from your computer to satan's server
#1
Apparently, according to the youtube video link below, when one signs up to Win 10, you're agreeing to a massive invasion of privacy and security.  If the following is true then this is extremely worrying.

About half-way through the youtube video, the phone-call finishes and an English guy gives you step-by-step advice on his PC on how to inactivate win10's 'spy-ware'. Worth watching if you want to use win10.

Thankfully, I decided to stop at win8.1 and anyway my main OS for everyday use has been and will continue to be LL - a lot simpler & safer!

Cheers

64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
