First reported Win 10 Security problem?

There is no way that I'm going to let it broadcast my passwords and/or WiFi access Codes!

Two bets possible if you were a bookmaker.

1) The number of security and bug fixes in the first 30 days.

2) The number of days to SP1. 40, 90, 120.

There may well be no SP1 if MS go over to small and regular patching. I am wondering if they go over to the Apple way of doing things and release a Win 10.1 rather than a service pack. It may be semantics but it would match with their new philosophy.

I have had Wi Fi Sense on my phone for a long time with no problems. But I use it to share only the same common user id and throwaway email address I use for non-sensitive sites and forums such as this to make logging on to public hotspots easier. The wi-fi sharing option has always been OFF.

I am glad that the only computer i am using Windows 10 on is not connected by wi-fi. Try and find my Wi-fi password from a wired connection then Microsft spy software

it does get worse. i have never really trusted windows since windows XP, not knowing what the Os is sending back to to MS, but from Windows 8 it have got worse.

The default settings of Win10 seems like it wants to share everything with everyone.

You forgot a bet,

3) The number of months before Windows 12 comes out tongue
