Great stuff Michael, thanks.
Question, are you planning in doing a follow up article but with games?
If yes, would you be using Ubuntu or HoloISO?

Microsoft certainly doesn't allow free-access from anyone to your information.
Meanwhile most people arguing this are typing it from Google Chrome, ISP DNS and/or no DoH, Secure Boot disabled, IOMMU disabled or passthrough, no MAC (like most Arch users), no memory encryption (requires a kernel option for AMD unless you're relying on the assumption that TSME is working), mitigations=off, cloud password managers, saving passwords and card info to their browser keycain, and other nonsense that's notably less-secure than what Windows presents at default. I guarantee most people running Linux with TPM2 don't put in any effort in to make the TPM even do anything, whereas it gets attested and used for security out-the-box on Windows.
What do people who argue "privacy" with Windows actually mean?
Anyone else who cares about privacy that deeply knows they should be on Tails and not making a point about it.

Yes to the first question. You use a locked account to bypass the requirement. If you enter for example (till Microsoft blocks this route anyway) [email protected] it will error with a locked account (too many password failures) and drop you to a local account creation screen.
A religious argument or reply is one that ignores given facts to state unproven or factually refuted opinion.
On the other hand, there are factual privacy & legal arguments to be made about wanting or requiring local & on prem accounts instead of Microsoft's wish for everyone to use Microsoft cloud logins for Windows 11.
And no, me not wanting an MS account is not religous, its ideological.
though it's germane for discussion of privacy issues (since it's still possible to install 10 with a local account profile, and hopefully it will remain so. If they try to force it on 10 like they have in 11 I will be re-evaluating my options.
Also, just as a side note, have you checked to be sure you don't have driver packages also phoning home to their various manufacturers?
Also I have to deal with Win 10 and in the near future with 11 at work, so I need to stay on the edge and know the tricks and quirks to keep the most stress away from me.

As usual. But linux fanboys despite the results will still claim that windows is very slow as a turtle and penguin has the power of a cheetah .
