The level of Windows 10 paranoia reached new heights this week when reports suggested that Microsoft would wipe torrents and pirated software from people's hard drives. Nonsense, of course, but all the recent privacy concerns were enough to have the operating system banned from several torrent trackers.
Days Gone developer says the game lovers to buy games at full price if want sequels. Garvin also mentioned piracy and torrent sites.
It was heard that a comprehensive law enforcement action targeted scene release group “SPARKS” and its associates earlier this month.
A company that sold Kodi-based software which accessed infringing TV, movie and sports streams has lost an interesting case featuring Dutch anti-piracy group BREIN. MovieStreamer claimed that it only provided a referral service to third-party content through a series of links but the court found that despite the convoluted process, it still communicated copyrighted works to the public.
To be fair I would believe a 3'rd party saying Microsoft is scanning hard drives and sending search and usage data before I would believe Microsoft saying their not. And thus far they haven't even said their not.
I can't wait until there's a global ban on Windows 10 altogether. It's a disgusting product. I'll be going back to Windows 7 & seeing if hackers can enable DX12 like they enabled DX10 on XP.
Microsoft should be ashamed once again for their repeated actions!
I only use ubuntu when I download torrents as I have a dual boot setup so I'm good.
Well that's happens when you get in the hype train, have you thought that win 10 is the new messiah as advertised? i am still on win 7 and glad of it.
Better question...how do I stop my computer from mentioning Windows 10 entirely?
If I wanted that upgrade, it would have been done already!
