    free "upgrade" and you almost got 5%??.
    To me looks like a big fail.

    That's why a lot of people use duckduckgo. They don't try and get rich off of others privacy.

    Like firefox, when there's software that cares about your privacy, some of us use it even if it's not all bells and whistles.

    Just wait a couple of weeks because just now people is starting to read about all this invasive tactics, first it was just all the payed publicity about supposed great advantajes if you upgrade your OS (by the way I don't see any one). On July 15th I upgraded and latter clean reinstalled v10240 (RTM) in a testing machine only for curiosity and play with it.. It is there yet as this machine is only for testing, I'm waiting to see if an update brings some improvements because it is not faster than Win7 that was previously there.

    driver issues and upgrade issues (win7 to win10 seems to have more issues than win8/8.1 to win10) are probably preventing a bunch of folks from upgrading to win10.

    as for the privacy issue, use the many reg/tweaker tools to disable them. :)

    as for browsers, i use pale moon 64-bit (everyday websites with adblock latitude and noscript extensions), tor browser (for naughty sites), slimbrowser (for ie11 websites), and srware iron 64-Bit (for my chrome fix/youtube). :p

    Bulls**t. It's Yosemite that's just plain crap. With El Capitan (10.11, which is currently in Beta ; google keyword "imzdl"), even a 2008 vintage Core 2 Duo MBP (google "everymac MB134LL/A" for specs) runs MUCH better than it ever did with Yosemite. Just think of Yosemite as the Vista SP0 of the OSX world.. slow-ass garbage from the get-go.

    Oh and as for being outdated quickly.. my mom's 4 year old iPhone 4S is running the current iOS 8.4.1, still gets updates (most recent from August 13th) and the iOS9 Beta still supports the 4S, too.

    If you don't have a clue of what you're talking about, it's best to just keep your mouth shut..

    Google doesn't scan my system, record my keystrokes, take screenshots anonymously and take my personal files. :31:

    Who cares about privacy? If you use technology like pc, phones, internet and blabla then you share your info with the companies like google, facebook, microsoft apple etc, don't talk about privacy.... If you want a privacy then don't use technology!

    That's all good and fine but there are expected limitations on spying when it comes to a desktop computer. The operating system on a desktop is not a phone, there is a big difference.

    And no I don't use any apps on the desktop, just full blown applications. So they have no need to know where I am or what I am doing with those purchased applications.

    Yeah, yeah, but you're using "OS" so there's no safe OS! linux, Windows Apple s**ts and so on are spying on you!
