    FWIW, I would like to see a “Windows Secrets” article on any privacy concerns with using Windows 10 and how to deal with them, i.e. what are the best ways to minimize your public footprint and the amount of information you share with Redmond. After reading the articles below and some other posts in various forums, I am very reluctant to move from Windows 7 to 10 without some guidance on maximizing privacy and minimizing what I give out for information. Paranoid? – perhaps, but I don’t want to pass on personal information without my knowing what I am passing on.

      Best to use the “Contact” button at the top of the page and send the suggestion to the newsletter editor.
