You can turn it off. Opt-out is still bullshit.

You can make yourself believe that you turned it off for now*
Yes Ms is secretly stealing from users across the world and yet not a single security researcher has found it. AND ALEXA IS LISTENING TO ME 24X365 DAYS A YEAR!

They do find it regularly. Its not even a secret, they are openly advertising it as a feature.

It is… thats its purpose…

I think you are in the wrong place on lemmy if you are so willingly blind to the realities of tech companies.

Exaggerating what is quite literally happening to make yourself sound smart actually just makes you look like a total dumbfuck.
The true opt out is to stop using Microsoft products

You can’t opt out, most healthcate providers use windows.

Microsoft all about opting out rather than opting in.

Perks of not signing into Windows with a Microsoft account… Oh wait
