    Any sources for this? I know Windows and probably MacOS send analytics but every keystroke and every document amended seems unlikely to me, maybe I’m wrong though.

        The timeline feature on Windows that shows your info across devices when your account is signed in, contains websites, apps and services. They say you can see it for 30 days, but I doubt they delete it after, even if they say they do. They probably at minimum process the meta-data.

        I don’t see why c/technology scream about privacy violations every other post, and then suddenly turn forgetful when geopolitics comes into play. I used to watch ‘exposés about China’ and anti-sjw stuff on youtube back in 2015 too - and then just as I stopped watching them, they became an ‘official geopolitical enemy’. The last decade has been a ride.
