It is controlled by Microsoft. It's not going on my Linux or BSD boxes.

I know how they work, and I want nothing to do with them.

Do you make sure to run a linux kernel with all the MS stuff patched out also?

No, but if it came in the standard install there's nothing I can do about it save spending hours and hours auditing my install. I don't do that kind of thing nowadays.

Separately installed software? Not a bit of it.
