Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 all had built in telemetry too.
Please tell me what built-in telemetry you think we have on our Windows 7 machines (where we typically don't deploy any non-security updates without a good reason).
Windows 10 added some additional telemetry for Windows Store Apps and a few built in services to see if anyone is utilizing them, but overall if you set Diagnostic Data to "Basic" your privacy is in a similar state to previous versions of Windows.
Here's documentation on it:
- Basic diagnostic data: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/basic...
- Full diagnostic data: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/windo...
