    They LET us KEEP our data… so they’re NOT (yet) using their market power to do what they want?

    I think this headline got it wrong: If MS wants to do business with Europe, they have to follow our privacy laws or face hufe fines and ultimately the boot (which would benefit nobody).

      The use of this kind of language certainly has it’s effects on non techies, hell even I didn’t notice it until I saw your comment

      It make people think they have no control over their data, and that online privacy is a myth

      No, not at all!

      They let us give them our data, and all their software makes us generous with it.
