Much controversity about privacy and Win 10. More information here. (http://money.cnn.com/2015/08/17/technology/windows-10-privacy/index.html?iid=ob_homepage_tech_pool&iid=obnetwork)

If you try & block or remove all Win10 "spying", some things no longer function. If they want to spy on me & 100+ million others, "be my guest". I don't use most of the new apps, except for Feedback.

SD, have you come across a single reference that covers all of the privacy settings comprehensively? I have read a number of articles and they tend to cite just a few examples. I have changed many settings to increase privacy but am not sure I got all of them. Thanks.

I haven't seen anything comprehensive yet.

In the UK the magazine WebUser has just published an eight page article on this, giving lots of advice on dos and don'ts. They conclude it is no worse than Google, Facebook etc. but recommend (among others) the following free utilities:
O&O ShutUp10 bit.ty/shutup380
Windows Privacy Fixer bit.ly/privfix380
