Yeah I refuse to upgrade to 10 simply because of the privacy issues. Apparently, you can change the default settings to turn the questionable stuff off, but it's a very convoluted process and even involves going to a 3rd party website. It does nasty stuff like automatically searching for pirated files and other things it thinks you shouldn't have.

No thanks. I'll stick with 7.

I've been debating going full blown Linux for a while now; the latest spying bit may just push me to wipe my last windows machine here at the house and be done.
