I never did like the default of 'opt-in'. What exactly is wrong with asking people first whether or not they want something? At this point I am almost tempted to relegate Windows to non-personal use only. Anything like email, word processing, personal data, and the like will go on a Linux box.

Windows 10 is full of spyware. Look at my host file it put exclusions in. Freak madness.
