Windows 10 Sends Your Activity History to Microsoft, Even if You Tell It Not To

If you do it... write an article and tell me... I'll have a look ;) :-D
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
Sounds like a plan. I'm already working on an IOT project, but once that one is done, I'll get started on this. Looks like a lot of fun.
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others. Same thing when you are stupid.

Sounds like a great IOT project. I have a few boards lying around. I don't think the Raspi 3 B+ would be good for this, because of the 100 megabit connection. Some of the other boards, like the LattePanda, have gigabit connections. ;)

According to this[^] the Pi 3 B+ has Gigabit Ethernet.

At least MS does it for telemetry (if you're willing to believe them), which is a whole different thing...

Really? Citing a six-year-old article ain't exactly relevant...

Most of this activity seems to be tied to a Microsoft Account... I only use Local Accounts, I am wondering how that affects things... Does anyone know?

If they did it once, they'll do it again. Once broken, trust is hard to regain.

You are correct Sir. :thumbsup: I must have mistaken it for the previous version. I have several still in the box, so I'll set on aside for this project.

Will do. I may ask you or one of the other experienced article writers for assistance when publishing. I haven't written an online article in several years and never for CP. :-D

I will gladly give you my opinion and help as I can, but... 1) I am not english speaker, 2) I am not that experienced author 3) I usually get hit by weird bugs My badge is for "protector", who you are looking for are the "menthor" ones. If you have any issue, question about the process you might ask in Article Writing Discussion Boards[^]. People over there are experienced writers.

Troy Hunt: Mmm... Pi-hole...[^] relevant? i forget now...
Pi-Hole sounds great. I have a PI3 sitting on my desk ... time to play ... Be interesting to see what it does to Microsoft telemetry.
