Just because he is paranoid is no reason to bash him. You probably have a PC - a
PERSONAL computer, so it stands to reason all information contained therein is
PERSONAL. I do not use hacks or anything like that but the computer is MINE and
it contains MY stuff. In this digital age information is power and I do not feel
like being a pawn in someones power struggle. MS steals everyones info. For my
few options I just fill in NONE - if they check the computer they will find
NONE.

With naysayers like you, no wonder our privacy is nonexistant.
