> no one seems interested in getting better information

Because there is already enough information here. It's a "Personal Computer". There is no reason (that is in the best interest of the PC's "Owner") for it to connect to "Data Research" 3rd parties with a fresh install of Windows.

Funny how the goalpost always moves from "prove that they're sending meaningful tracking data" to "just prove that they're connecting to a 3rd party".

I think I've been quite consistent in asking why these 3rd party connections are being made at all, and saying that they are not needed.

If only the goalpost would stay right there...
