    I mean, MS can literally track you between Windows installs, as long as you’re on the same hardware. No surprises here.

      How? Is there a way to mitigate this?

              The only way :) Once I stopped using all proprietary software, I also quit social media (this account is the first one after such a long time) and I’ve never felt happier. Linux and privacy for the win!

                Couldn’t agree more!

        Install a Linux distro.

          I use Gentoo on my main computer. I was just curious.
