How does Windows 10 compare? It also tracks and reports which websites you visit, but maybe it doesn't in private browsing mode?

Edit: People asking for sources, go to Settings -> Diagnostics & Feedback. See the part where it says "Send ... info about websites you browse"? You might also be interested in the setting below it; when you enable it "Microsoft will collect samples of the content you type"[1].

Citation needed. The device telemetry does not include browsing history.

Citation needed. Microsoft's documentation says it includes "information about the websites you browse".

It also says that "data items collected in Windows diagnostics are subject to change to give Microsoft flexibility to collect the data needed", so even if they aren't collecting that data today, they reserve the right to take whatever they want whenever they feel like it.
