To the really privacy concerned users, who did read and accepted the ToS and PP - you clicked I agree, so you're obviously OK with the situation. If not you shouldn't use these Microsoft products.

If you're dependent on Windows - you have two options: 1) accept it as it is, or 2) go into a ToS-PP-greyzone, namely using a IP-HOST blocker (like PeerBlock) with a specific list and cut all connections with all known Microsoft's IP ranges - which in fact is a kind of breaking the ToS.

If you aren't dependent on it - go for something else, like Linux.
