Saw mention of Windows 10 sharing your WiFi passwords on that other site.  Since Windows 10 release is imminent, thought I'd post the info here.

This link has info on turning off WiFi Sense...

Thanks for posting that, steve58. That's why I always skip the 'Express Installation' for any software I install. Windows has always been bad about defaulting options like that to 'On'. And after I install it I'll check to make sure it is turned off.

I don't think that one bothers me too much. I've always manually updated Windows but I've NEVER refused to do one. Still, I'm not keen on giving up any control.

:-[ I chickened out yesterday and cancelled my Windows 10 reservation...figured I'd wait a bit to see how the rollout goes.

Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Midget porn doesn't use too much bandwidth.

Now there are privacy/spying issues with Windows 10, but at least you can opt out...supposedly.  Glad I decided to take a step back to wait-and-see...
