Because of the built-in spy functions (in Germany this is a highly sensitive topic for the two dictatorial regimes on German ground in the 20th century where lots of people went to prison because of the surveillance).

With Windows 10, Microsoft infringed the acceptability line for this.

Further dubious point on Windows 10 are that Windows 10 will be the first version that also supports Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX). If you don't know about this sensitive topic, go read about it.
