you’re conflating security and privacy which are two entirely different subjects.
I would say they are mutually dependant
not necessarily. you need security for privacy but you don’t need privacy to be secure.
your data is more secure on windows from malicious 3rd party actors than Linux, but you have lower privacy due to Microsoft’s ridiculously invasive telemetry. The telemetry does not decrease your security though.
I wouldn’t agree the telemetry essentially increases ur attack surface to include all of Microsoft. Sure a Microsoft server might be more secure than something else but they are also a far bigger target
I’m sorry but no lmao. Microsoft getting hacked isn’t increasing your risk for exfiltrating local data.
Yeah but with the proliferation of services like one drive u have no local data.
that is a fair point, I wish people didn’t trust cloud storage as much but I blame Microsoft for putting it as the default home directory on windows unless disabled. even chromebooks default to local storage unless you select Google drive while windows defaults straight to OneDrive without any obvious signifiers
