Microsoft wondering why most Windows users still use 10.

Also Microsoft: "What if Windows 11 constantly took screenshots of your PC?"

They're just going to keep getting worse and worse until people either get off their duffs and start demanding privacy laws be made that actually mean something or *after* people start getting massive amounts of damages and then start suing (and winning -- tricky against big company lawyers, but not impossible when they go this far.)

Nothing new is going on here. Remember the days of the xp-AntiSpy tool? Although XP had no AI, it still collected a significant amount of data that was not relevant to the OS functionality. If Windows comes bundled with almost every machine available in major brick-and-mortar or online stores, and if Microsoft integrates AI into it, people will just keep using it.
Needs 16 gigs of RAM just for the OS? That's fine, RAM is cheap and you can download RAM boosters or cleaners...
