    Wasting data for those who pay for it in a metered fashion, wasting bandwidth while uploading needlessly, wasting metered storage space in your OD if it’s copying shit you don’t want it to copy. A potential security issue for businesses/corporate/industrial users maybe?

    It sounds like a PITA. Id be upset if Arch started backing up my shit to a cloud storage website without my explicit permission. I’m not surprised Windows is doing this. Windows has always been shitty, but it’s increasingly end-user hostile. I feel no shame in having pirated every version of an MS OS from the 3.11 upgrade up until the Win10 I keep on a desktop for my kids to use for school stuff that doesn’t play nice with Linux.
