give them their own statement of internet surffing and they ask me "I
never uploaded so much information, how is this number so high?"
afterall when you install a spyware called windows on your machine
this is what happens.
While I agree with the fact that windows *attracts* viruses and spyware
like flies getting attracted to decaying fruit. But I disagree with
statements that the Windows OS itself is a spyware. Windows by default
has automatic updates security enabled, just as Debian has when it looks
for security updates on the repos while installation. There are other
linux distros too that check the net for updates, on post installation.
As an extra measure, M$ has the WGA package to check for pirated
products, which it is in its right to do so. Those who use genuine M$
products have nothing to fear.
