[QUOTE="kailyn, post: 1091466, member: 113651"] If the thief gets your computer there is valuable data already on it, whether it is a local or active directory (Microsoft Account) managed account. Arguments about privacy are irrelevant at this point. Nobody has privacy and nobody can achieve the kind of privacy that privacy nuts talk about unless the user disconnects and moves to an island lives off-grid. If you want privacy then you need to use a privacy-focused Linux distro without creating online accounts or conducting business of any kind online. Otherwise, if you want to "do stuff" online you have no privacy and there's nothing you can do about it. Your data is being collected and tracked. [/QUOTE]
