I've searched the Web and seen lots of theories and arguments on what Microsoft collects on its new operating system. I've seen people say statistics, basic data. I've seen people say Cortina's voice commands, Bing searches, even email content. I've heard about a possible keylogger that got "removed" on the final version. I've seen Microsoft disclaimers saying data was needed to improve user's experience. And finally I've seen Microsoft say any info will be delivered to the government if the law required it, the user was under legal sight or to protect consumers.
Now the question I wanna make is: does Microsoft collect information on third party sites/apps, just as Gmail instead of Hotmail/Outlook? And finally does Microsoft access to user's personal files, such as pictures?
I know Microsoft does not care about my private holidays on Guatemala, and this is not a thread to discuss whether they spy or do not spy on us. I just want to know how deep is this issue, just to know what I'm installing.
Anyone's got a clue?
PS: is keylogger really removed?
