Re: Windows to become Adware and User Data Collection Service

Maybe they are applying for the patent to keep anyone else from doing it?

Could be that MS is looking to block the potential spread of "alternative" OSes being used on cheap PCs supported by ads. Sort of along the lines of what was suggested , but not for MS, but to stop others?

Of course it is all just speculation and we all love a good MS bash session anyways.
Hopefully thats what it is.
