@[email protected] > company that's not exactly known to be good with user data privacy ehh yea, that's true. i'm not defending corporations harvesting user data. i'm just saying that *currently* this is not that case. > Please don't say "skill issue" to the hundreds of thousands of people who get malware put on their computer every year i didn't mean to insult anyone, i meant that in a lighthearted way, sorry if it came across as hostile but the point is still that there is **no** way to 100% protect you from malware/scammers/etc. social manipulation is a very difficult topic, because humans are humans after all. i accidentally ran a stealer once too. and i can't blame anyone except myself for that. if you can't trust yourself you won't fall victim to one of those, you can just not use it, it's literally that simple. and if someone forces you to use it (e.g. domestic abuse), there is a lot of other software that allows you to do something similar, probably even with remote control. i really don't think ms making this built into the system makes it worse. if someone really wanted to, they would already. and i'm not trying to belittle such cases, it's just that literally anything can be used maliciously...
