Yeah Windows has all your information! So does Google! You're on camera probably 20 times on any given day. This paranoia is extremely ridiculous. Every website you visit has your IP address. Your ISP has everything you visit! For all the services Vista phones home with look like they improve the experience anyway. Don't sync your time with Microsoft servers then. Don't participate in the Customer Experience Program...turn off error reporting in services. Sid0 is right on with everything. People are freaked over nothing.
Windows has been gathering usage data long before Vista.
From the article... k... lets pretend M$ has all this info. So what? What the hell are they going to do with it? Why does it bother you so much? Seriously, out of all the information that is gathered... what is going to happen?
Why people think they have some inherit right to privacy when they purchase a product from a company is beyond me.
