"Privacy", this version of windows is the one with the most bloatware preinstalled on the computer and of the top of that if the computer is connected to the network it send by default data to not only Microsoft tracking services but also external tracking services. The true reason why Microsoft want you to switch is that they will soon stop the support of windows 10 (remember it was supposed to be the last version of windows) and start selling extended support. So if you switch to windows 11 they sell more of your data and make more money and if you stick to windows 10 you're forced to pay an annual fee and they make more money. This is the true reason for windows 11 to even exist in the first place.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on Windows 11 and expressing your concerns about privacy. It's crucial to have discussions about these topics, as they impact users' experiences with operating systems. While opinions on this matter can vary, it's important to note that the landscape of technology and privacy practices is ever-evolving. Microsoft, like any tech company, may implement changes in response to user feedback and industry standards. If you have specific sources or articles supporting your claims, I'd be interested in checking them out to better understand the context
@@hptechmatters well as you said everyone is free to have is own opinion on the matter. It's just that for me Microsoft stopped to be a trustworthy company the second they broke their promise of making windows 10 their last OS. By doing it they force everyone to move with it because the alternative are usually much worse, they force you to have computer that have better spec meaning a lot of material that still work very well lost (especially in a company context where you have apps running on small servers because they don't need much of ressources). That's good to know that many companies did move from the previous versions of windows to windows 10 (despite sometimes the many changes that it implies in the softwares/applications) because of the promise of Microsoft to make it the last version that will continue to be updated forever. As for my sources it mainly come from two things : - A bit of reasoning, you don't become one of the biggest company worldwide by being friendly to your clients but by being friendly to your investors. And it's very rare (at least to my knowledge) that investors put large amount of money in a company without expecting benefits of it. So you have to give money back to the investors and that's usually done by taking it from the clients. This logic usually stands even more when you're in a monopole situation and can basically charge the clients as much as you want without repercussions, and Microsoft is in an extreme monopole situation with over 70% of personal computer worldwide using it and also most professional through an active directory server. - The second one is just pure technical stuff but just try to do a clean installation of windows 11 to a computer with the default settings and start a software such as Wireshark or tcpdump who allow you to see each request send from your computer. For each of those requests take a look to where it goes and you will have an idea of how many services are getting data from you without you even knowing anything about it. This become much more flagrant when you do the same thing on a fresh install of a windows XP computer and compare the requests done on both sides. For those who don't have that sort of technical knowledge can still look at it on the internet it's an experience made again and again by many peoples and the results are always the same.
