This enhanced comfort is to be taken with a grain of salt though: Windows 10 quite freely shares your personal data with Microsoft and certain apps. Some services protocol your entire keyboard entries, share your WLAN access data with your facebook contacts or connect your computer without asking permission to a public \u2013 and potentially unprotected \u2013 network. While this means that you and your contacts do not have to grapple with complicated WLAN passwords, it also poses a significant security risk.<\/p>\n<p>Windows 10 lets you deactivate most of the privacy endangering features manually, but not all in one place, and not especially easy to find. <\/p>\n<p><strong><\/p>\n<h3>Protect your privacy in Windows 10 &#8211; Free!<\/h3>\n<p><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>O&#038;O Software&#8217;s freeware <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oo-software.com\/en\/shutup10?utm_source=ooblog&#038;utm_medium=oolink&#038;utm_content=TextLink&#038;utm_campaign=social\">O&#038;O ShutUp10<\/a> means you have full control over which comfort functions under Windows 10 you wish to use, and you decide when the passing on of your data goes too far.
