So Microsoft is making fun of Google for collecting our data when Microsoft is doing and have been doing the exact same thing for many years..



Not to mention the data-collecting monolith that their Xbox One will be...

Oh yeah, and EVERYTHING you do on Skype is recorded by Microsoft btw.
Skype was originally moderately safe from things like this because of the encryption they used. But Microsoft didn't like that, so they re-engineered Skype to be less safe and easier to spy on..

Who's doing that?
Because I certainly am not.

If answer to previous question = me, then:
Seeing implied stupidity where there is none? Or just venting your hate for me?

Ironic? Yes.


Hilarious? Kinda.

Need for panic about companies like google and Microsoft spying on you? No. Unless they really wanna spy on my hard drive filled with a TB of MLP porn. I think I will not be joining you in wearing my tin foil hat today.

It's a bad thing that half of the microsoft employees are watching porn for a living because of you though. They should protect themselves against this kind of distraction.

By the way, what's that "preywachy" they keep talking about?

I really wonder who would buy stuff like this.

I was considering it for a few moments. It's so dumb that I almost wanna wear it ironically to make fun of Microsoft. I'm a bit of a hipster like that.

I wouldn't have the guts to wear it I think. But if Google decides to fight fire with fire then I'll be walking about in a Google cap and Microsoft T-shirt :D
