A senior Communist functionary claims that the end-user service agreement attached to the new Windows 10 OS violates the Russian law requiring the personal data of Russian citizens to be collected and processed only by specially-licensed companies.

Vadim Solovyov, the chief lawyer of the Communist Party in the State Duma addressed Prosecutor General Yury Chaika with an official request to launch a probe into Microsoft?s latest operating system, Izvestia daily reported Tuesday.

In his letter, the politician claims that the end-user service agreement distributed with Windows 10 reads that the operating system (OS) will collect and store users? web history, access points, passwords and other personal data, including physical location, emails and other messages and information about phone calls. Microsoft also reserves the right to share this data with special services, use it in research, publish or use it in any other way it sees fit.

However, current Russian law demands that such gathering and processing of personal information is only permissible by companies included in the National Register of Personal Data Operators, Solovyov noted. As Microsoft is not included on this register, the distribution of Windows 10 on Russian territory becomes illegal, he wrote.

In addition, the MP shared his fears that the use of the new OS in Russian state structures could end in leaks of classified information to foreign special services.

?Practically, we are talking about espionage here,? the letter reads.

Have you Canadians even heard about Linux, or it haven't reached your backwoods yet?

That's how Windows 10 makes screenshots of your screen and sends them to Microsoft:



Such a cool operating system

Windows 10 service agreement stirs espionage fears in me, too. I've had it with Microsoft anyway.

There is a ton of those Linux-based systems already. The first one (ALT Linux) was released in 2001. Now even the Russian mobile military operating system (the one with high security and encryption) is also based on Linux. Actually Linux is the best available constructor which you can use as a base for anything. For example Google uses it as a base for Android. So there is nothing funny about it. Only an idiot will use Windows on the security-sensitive systems (especially government and military-related ones).

BTW, Windows 10 keep sending your screenshots and all other sorts of activities (including the contents of your HDD and your connection logs) to Microsoft even when all those spy functions are "disabled". The proof video was posted above. So if you haven't yet upgraded to this wonderful OS, it's not too late to do it right now
