Microsoft has some options in Windows 10 to enable the privacy protection, but according to some latest research done by experts, Windows 10 stills talks to Microsoft servers even when told not to.With Windows 10, Microsoft aimed to make an OS that could be called complete in every sense. To make this happen, Windows 10 uses the Internet to support many features. There are ways to stop Windows 10 from tracking you by tweaking some settings in the OS. With these, you can turn off Cortana, location settings and other ways that interact with Microsoft servers.
According to the different analysis done by security experts, these options to stop Windows 10 from spying on you are not enough. Knowing the fact that Windows 10 uses your data to improve your experience wasn’t so surprising, but going through all the pains of changing privacy settings only to know that your Windows 10 PC is still talking to Microsoft is really frustrating. Analysis by tech website Ars Technica shows that Windows 10 still communicates to Microsoft and some of the information is identifiable. In another report by a Czech website Aeronet.cz, it was said that Windows 10 acts like a terminal instead of an operating system.
