> stil the best one out there

Honest question: how do you know? I read the OP article and it talks about 100+ 'rules'. How can one ever make sure all this stuff is disabled (or even needs disabling)? And possible new stuff after updates gets disabled as well?

I'd really want to switch to W10 because it certainly has appealing features but didn't do set yet exactly because of this privacy stuff. But reading things like this makes me almost give up and go like 'well, yeah, f this, nothing I can do about it so let's just use W10 it and to hell with my privcay, nothing to see here anyway'

If I were to run just one of those tools, I'd pick the original article. That's because his plain English description is far better than the others. He starts off with "What & Why?" and explains what problem he's solving; the others jump in with words like "remove all spyware modules".

Even for very technical people, unless we're willing to analyze the source code, a good clear description (and reviews) is how we're going to decide which product to try.

Author of [3] here, you are right, I do skip the what & why, on purpose. I think there a far better places to learn about the whole spyware / telemetry and privacy topic, even better than the original article. [3] is made for admins which already know what they want (and why) to help them kickstart their own setup scripts. They are advised to read the scripts themselves instead of an inaccurate explanation.

I do not intend to sell you the project. (Sell in the sense of talking you into using it. Either it's what you are looking for or you need something different. And I will not waste your valuable time if you need something different.)

Thats cool, me on the other hand I rather look at the code and see with my own eyes whats going on, that means peeking into .bat and .ps files.
