  Maybe so.

  But seriously, if I don’t want Windows spying on me for a task, I wouldn’t use Windows for that task. There’s no way I could ever trust the modern Windows OS to not be monitoring me, regardless of the settings I’ve applied. And I’m a systems engineer with nearly 2 decades of Windows administration under my belt.

  Unless you’re running an enterprise license, there’s telemetry shit you literally can’t turn off.

  The beauty of a live ISO is that when you turn your computer off, there’s no trace left.
