DjSall15617yI dislike how they treat privacy and their solution to GDPR is that you should uninstall windows if you want to opt out.
They force everything onto you, making it very hard or sometimes impossible to make your own choice in their operating system. It is infuriating and making me want to move to Linux, but I need the Adobe suite and my games -
DjSall15617y@aEEEdev I've only seen tools built by third parties that can stop spying, Ms wants you to give all your data to them. They even know the kind of weird porn everyone looks at

The spying part and the fact that they completely disregard their users' privacy makes that I distrust github now. Solely for selling to Microsoft.

I honestly think it is not that bad that github is now acquired by MS...
I ve read various articles that explains MS has saved github from 'extinction due to lack of leadership' ..
As long as they dont affect the base thing and are planning to sell wrappers around github, i think it is a good thing for business..Because i always think that an open source project is more stable , when a leading company makes a lot of money providing its wrapper .. The company would make all steps possible to make sure that github doesnt become obselete ( which it will if MS makes it bloated with its extensions ) Example Redhat for linux..
By seeing many posts here, i only see hatred towards Windows and IE , not fear about MS acquiring github.
