"Contribute"
"Integrity"
"Improvement"
All three individual words are prime examples of words I never in my wildest fever dreams, could have imagined in the same sentence as the word/name "Microsoft", yet here we are... And had it not been open source, I wouldn't ever have trusted either of those words in the same sentence as Microsoft...
...And I'm not sure I do now;
I don't really know anything about this (which I'm sure is glaringly obvious), but knowing Microsoft, this read smells ever so slightly like telemetry - or at least something that could be used to coax information out of these things under the guise of making sure that the newest kernel is loaded.
EDIT:
Just saw the above post now. Had the page loaded for a while, before responding.
We'll put, PublicNuisance! :'DLast edited by mbrf; 22 February 2021, 04:13 PM.
