| 1415979 | 2016-02-12 09:24:00 | Now I am getting closer to my build in March I am starting to think about Win10 again. I am really hesitant due to all the spyware in it and I am looking for assurances it really can be turned off If it can't is Win7 still an option even with these new CPU blocks? |

| 1415983 | 2016-02-14 19:59:00 | Win7 now also has spyware , installed via Windows updates 'telemetry' Its just the way things now are . Dont worry about it , its no big deal . If you truly dont want any spying, you must NEVER use the internet again. Thats the reality . Also destroy your android phone & and disconnect smart TV's etc . |

| 1415986 | 2016-02-14 21:52:00 | Because all large corporations, Governments, and Scientists are evil and trying to destroy civilization as we know it. Also aliens are abducting people and psychics are real. Posting what you had for lunch on facebook however is essential information we all must see and it's ok because we choose to share it. Yes that's sarcasm, just in case anyone thinks I'm serious. The bit about choice is probably it though, having information gathered in secret is more annoying than choosing to give it away freely. Personally I don't care, they can spy on me all they like. |

Is that OS for Chinese Govt depts ? I cant imagine the Chinese general public using it over Win or Linux |
