Users should refrain from installing third-party applications that might spoil the operating system configuration. Microsoft is put under pressure again thanks to the tracking services got into Windows 10, with some privacy advocates who say that the new operating system can become a modern sort of Big Brother to the Redmond giant, but the company He says he does not collect data without the consent of users.
Basically it is, some data if they are collected from your computer, but it is necessary that you give permission for this to happen.
By default, some tracking services are operating . This means that take place in the computer after the operating system is installed, so that a number of third party applications that arrived at the same time addressed this problem by disabling.
But here we have a big question: should we turn off these applications to ensure your privacy when we use Windows 10? For the answer, we got in touch with Microsoft and certainly find a privacy issue.
First rule: stay away from those applications
The company said that nothing ask, stating:
“We strongly recommend that consumers do not install applications of this nature. Such programs may alter the way in which the system operates, creating future problems and important choices and changing aspects of programming. “
Those who choose to go the opposite way, are already warned, as would be endangering your computer. Microsoft, therefore, says that could create problems when deactivate specific aspects of the service. However, the second question remains latent: Is there a privacy issue with Windows 10? Yes and no.
Display options come with a setting for privacy, but it takes some time, especially for beginners, knowing how to use it to create the perfect setting in Windows 10 .
Therefore, until Microsoft show us the details of privacy, the company we keep his distance from such applications.
