The same could be said for operating systems, yet Windows 10 ships with lots of bloatware apps (Candy Crush...).

Also, a browser can track your browsing behavior, data that can be sold.

Does MS really sell data to anyone? Seems to me whatever data they collect would be used internally, e.g. to improve products.

One problem is that we have no idea with all that data they're able to collect through Windows.

I don't use Windows, but surely the GDPR means EU users have a right to know how their data is used and who it is passed to, and how they use it ... so for EU users that info should be public already?
