Molly Whiteback in my day we called this spyware
"have you ever wanted to install a keylogger to spy on your spouse or kid? well have we got news for you"
sͧb̴ͫƸ̴gͬᵉ@molly0xfff I can also hear workers unions and GDPR lawyers *screeching* over this one.
On the upside, it would be cool to get to do a full enterprisewide Windows-to-Linux migration for an org before I retire.
marco_m_aus_f@subm3rge @molly0xfff Chances for a full Windows-to-Linux migration are good, at least in Germany.
The Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community has been working on openDesk for quite a while. Federal offices run Windows in a VM on secured Linux hosts and mostly anything important is a webapp running on Linux anyway. LibreOffice is the default in Schleswig-Holstein now(~30k desktops).
See a lengthy list of Linuxy things at https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-Source-Software_in_%C3%B6ffentlichen_Einrichtungen#Deutschland
This will not end well for M$
Luna chan@subm3rge @molly0xfff Linux as desktop has gotten good enough and Wine runs a lot of Windows programs now

There are a few solutions.
But lets be honest Windows is dead for anything remotely secure if this spyware can't be easily removed.

The entity I work in makes such a transition, on a voluntary basis from the users. Ho boy, M$ is making recruiting volunteers for migration easy !

@subm3rge @molly0xfff No. The data remains on device, so why should this be an issue regarding the GDPR?
