Apparently it's an 'Enterprise' edition available only for the Chinese government - https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10...

It's funny that the Chinese, who have created a vast network of online and offline spywares, gets to have a Windows stripped of all spyware! Shows how much Microsofts cares about us ordinary users.

Your point is correct consumer-wise, but saying that only the Chinese Government benefits from this is misleading. It is certainly possible to disable every telemetry - if you use the enterprise version.

(By the way, Windows 10 Home China is also like Windiws 10 Home - except that telemetry is stored domestically in China rather than transmitted to US.)

No, the Chinese version has all the telemetry code removed. There's nothing to turn off, unlike in the Enterprise edition.

So Microsoft still has full access to telemetry, they just have to generate the reports inside their China divisions?

Not for the Chinese government. Their Windows version has no telemetry code at all.

> Windiws 10 Home

I had to do a search to see if that was a knockoff or just your typo!
