Free Windows 10
**Update:
Never look a gift horse in teh mouth, or in this case, do.
Turns out that this latest version of Windows is not only free, but gives free access to ‘relevant authorities’ who may wish to access your data, view how you use your files, or view what files you have;
Microsoft released a statement to this effect: –
“Microsoft may share information when required by law or to respond to legal process or lawful requests, including from law enforcement or other government agencies.”
You have been warned….
