Asked about this on uhm... that board, and was told to ask here.
So, basically, to which degree can Windows 10 access my files?
Can they really check all the shit that's on my HDD?

Thanks

Yes.
Install gentoo.

Yes and your CPU has a hardware backdoor so illuminati or whatever can monitor everything even if you install TempleOS, you’re fucked.

>to which degree can Windows 10 access my files?
fully
>Can they really check all the shit that's on my HDD?
when it's plugged in, yes

/thread

go away cryptokike and install gentoo

WELL maybe at this point. I should mention I used the Alex Jones pic ironically

But I'm too dumb for linux ;-;

Damn, doesn't sound good

Your CPU also unironically has a backdoor.

I read that too, but it's so uncomfortably unspecific, so I thought maybe anyone here would know more.

Judging from what I've heard about it, I'm pretty sure that that's not confirmed yet...

>files in private folders
What more do you need?

da faq hardware backdoor?? what?? This is news. where do I find more info about this
inb4 google

Have some random article on IME, AMD has the same shit with a different name.

They don't really specify WHEN they access that information, or for what reason exactly.
As in, "how badly do I have to fuck up to have microsoft look through my shit"?

IME is by definition a backdoor. The conspiracy part is wheather or not it’s used by the government or something.

this is referring to onedrive

So you've read little or nothing?

A part of your CPU or chipset being deticated on making remote access possible.

thank you
one internet for you

OP, the only way to truly protect yourself is to get off the internet. Not even a Librebooted X60 will be able to save you now.

Hecc that's scary

Absolutely false. A librebooted X60 or X200 will solve OP's problems

The entire purpose of the surveillance state isn't to keep people safe, it's to enact political control by allowing unelected bureaucrats within the intelligence agencies the means to spy on political adversaries for personal gain.

The US is not a functioning government, it's a dictatorship masquerading as a democracy.

onedrive comes with windows 10 by default

Everything. There are things on your computer which you're not allowed access to.

kek, they have everything.

this. This is windows in a nutshell

The internet is a hellscape full of blood sucking demons. Windows is like asking satan himself to fuck you in the ass.

I read that in Jones's voice

what is UEFI PXE

fucking dumbass nigger spreading fake news

They have literally everything. If you're wanting privacy, stay the fuck away from Windows. Also, stay away from smart phones with whatever OS's they come with (Use Copperhead). Also, avoid smart TVs, or, if you can't, never connect them to the internet.

Sorry bud, but it is very much confirmed, a backdoor for Intel to access business systems, for you to remotely access your own system, and for hackers to use vulnerabilities to elevate privileges for themselves and gain full low level access to your system. It is confirmed. It is real. And the hacks are out there.

The only actual unconfirmed question is whether it is done with Intel's collusion with the NSA (like every other tech company does) or not. Nothing stopping NSA from forcing their way in either though.

Well, the NSA themselves use computers with the ME almost completely disabled

>So, basically, to which degree can Windows 10 access my files?
There are public US court documents that mention that they have full access because a group of Microsoft employees sued Microsoft because their job involved looking at pictures that Microsoft's users had (pictures that were automatically flagged by some AI) and people have all sorts of shit on their harddisks like child snuff porn which one Microsoft employee was highly distressed and very traumatized by and the people who were not able to continue work did not get any real help or compensation...

But the court documents mention that because Windows 10 is legally a Microsoft service (you don't own the software, you only have a user license) so they have full access to every single thing. You agree to it in the end-user license agreement, let me just quote this little thing:

>We will access, disclose and preserve personal data, including your content (such as the content of your emails, other private communications or files in private folders), when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary to protect our customers or enforce the terms governing the use of the services.

There is evidence that they use that part of the terms and conditions to legally look through people's files.

Apparently they always look through your shit, but humans only look through it when something is flagged as far as I understand.

I can't imagine AMD is better. Are there any manufacturers where this sort of thing is unlikely?

To my knowledge, no. Even laptops that market themselves as "almost completely open source, from head to toe" wind up using Intel or AMD CPUs.

>implying that will somehow prevent the NSA spying the internet connection
>implying that Linux has no backdoors
The only real solution is to use hardware and software designed by yourself, e.g.:
mycpu.eu

>0 evidence given

don't believe everything you read on a screencap on Sup Forums my dudes

Can? Sure. If they can't they could just issue an update that allows them to. If you have updates disabled on an internet connected PC that's already a bigger security concern.

As for if they do or could get away with accessing your files without lawsuits up the ass is another story.

People will often quote the license that applies to OneDrive that they can disclose your files, but of course they have to if compelled to by law, telling you otherwise would be lying to you.

Apart from "they used this to spy on drumpf" everything in that image has been known for years

>open Task Manager
>disable autostart of OneDrive

>I'm too dumb for linux
Get the fuck out.

its unspecific on purpose (and not for your favour)

>to which degree can Windows 10 access my files?

It's an operating system.
The primary use of an operating system is accessing files.

The only question is: what will Microsoft do with all that data now that they can no longer make money by selling the OS?

Install Kasperspy. Then you are safe.

not just your harddrive. win10 can use your pc speakers as a microphone and listen in
it reaches out to any and all wifi or bluethtooth it finds and collects data. records any usb devices ever connected

>1.comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal process, including from law enforcement or other government agencies;

This is my real issue.

I live in a country where the government just signed a law stating all communications must be stored for years and made readable by law enforcement regardless of previous suspicion.

Microsoft helps repressive governments like mine.
