Windows 10 has a lot of telemetry that's still difficult to turn off. (Which will be interesting with the GDPR). They've started pushing ads through their OS/platform as well.
Sure MS has gone a ways out into the OSS world, they have docker containers for SQL Server, .NET Core is open source and runs on Linux, etc. They've made some headway, but I can still understand why people have concerns.
