That's good to know! Is there any formal proof of said theory? Like what is this analytics layer called, and is the tunneling something that devs are aware of? Just interested in putting some names to this theory so I don't sound like a loon when I try and describe it.
It doesn’t actually work that way, but the net result is the same. Windows is a Trojan horse that manifests itself as an OS but is really just a delivery mechanism for crap from Microsoft. One drive. Cortana. Edge. It’s all so invasive.
