What is fix-windows-privacy?
With the release of Microsoft's Windows 10 operating system, several innovations have been introduced to the market regarding the privacy settings. What is normality with Apple since long and apparently has been accepted by OSX users, now also became reality for Microsoft users: The analysis of use data and behavior by the US American creator of the software.
Over time more and more users published instructions on how to break Microsoft's habit of spying on their users, including for private users whose computers are not part of a company or enterprise domain. I was annoyed that this leads to manually clicking checkmarks on a graphical user interface or running confusing PowerShell scripts and merge several single rule-sets. With the webpage https://fix10.isleaked.com/ I had the idea to build a tool, which is easily extendable and configurable and can automate the process of reaching an adequate level of privacy on the press of a button.
Fix Windows 10 Privacy can be used via a GUI or the commandline. Right now it implements about 130 rules, which keep Windows 10 in check, regarding data protection.
