I have a computer science degree, and have gone through periods where I've maintained custom Linux distros built from scratch for myself. I'm not able to keep up with all of the newly discovered (and subsequently disabled) methods for disabling all of the online services in windows 10.

I didn't mention OSX because I didn't want to be overly verbose but yeah any non-free OS at this point has pretty much no respect at all for privacy or user freedom.

I have a master degree in CS. There's really not much of a learning curve to disabling telemetry on Windows or OSX. It requires some labor, but so does any kind of technological upkeep.
