Don't let Microsoft Get Away With Your Data!  Why wouldn't anything else to Microsoft whether it be a Microsoft Office 365 and/or any Microsoft-related products

Do not let them get away from collecting your data!  The more I continue to upgrade to a new Windows OS every 5-7 years time frame.  More of your data will continue to creep in. What Microsoft is today is no longer in the business of building OSes, instead, Microsoft is in the Business of Data Mining your computer.  What you are doing at all times.  This is where the tipping point I can see with Windows 11.  During the time of going through this blog, \[quads id=1\]

### JayTwoCent released a video about how to get around with Windows user account required steps.  So instead, you can bypass pass it by going through command lines by checking the video below!  (High recommend)

### Many times I never wanted to install Windows 11 and keep the operating system what I had before.

however, a friend over the pond convinced me further to install Windows 11 since it was beginning to send out free to many users for one year!

Sure, Windows 11 is convenient since I know I use it all the time.  I use still Windows 11 at this current moment.  If you haven't downloaded Windows before Microsoft's new patch release.  Then it will be a little late for you.  Let's say if you still have Windows 10 and that's still working for you,  I say keep it!  Do not go through the trouble of installing Windows 11.  Windows 10  I had its issues,  The least that I can do is let users install locally instead of over the internet through your Microsoft account,  This doesn't make it fair for users that don't have a great internet connection. Here's in the United States If you live in rural America but can not get a great connection to your home, the only way you can go internet is by your local internet cafe or, get satellite internet (Which data speeds aren't as better)  many Satelite internet comes with a hard data cap which you can't do a lot of streaming or gaming.

I repeat Microsoft is in the Data Mining Business not in the OS building business!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The direction Microsoft is going right now is not great!  Even if Microsoft comes out with the next version... say Windows 12 I would not install it!  I'll keep Windows 11 till EOL support is pulled off!
