How can you tell? ;)
Disable your Internet connection and then see if you can use Word or the
Games or whatever.
What if you enable the internet connection
again? Would the remote session be resumed
and data sync-ed auto-magically the moment
you do it?
I know this is too paranoid... But is the
technology doing it feasible now? ;)
Depends (I think that is what he wears). What do you consider to be compromised?
To answer your last question first. Yes the technology is very much
capable of doing it now. Just ask any HP printer owner.....
Does every OS or app or program use that technology? no. Does windows?
Yes.Does Google/tiktok/facebook/microsoft and many many others use it?
Yes.
As for your original question we are about half way to that point
right now. Some setups do not connect to the Microsoft servers at all,
but that is getting harder and harder to accomplish.... switching to
Linux helps. Are you running your windows session on a microsoft
server? depends.... all office 365 sessions are run on their servers,
but the basic OS is just sending all your data to the servers while
running on your own system (for now) .
There is a general push to get the entire computing population to
move to a server based system. This allows the companies to control
everything done on their software, and be able to gather/use/sell
whatever information people put out there. Put it on the Internet and
they own it, not you. You lose any control of that information/data.
People in the know have been warning of this for many years now, but
the general population loves the easy way to do things , and just
waves their hands at all the intrusive parts as being the cost of
convenience. To get around it you would need to have absolutely zero connections to the Internet. No Cell Phone, no modern car or TV, no
alexa, no cable box, or youtube. No thermostat that connects to the
web.... etc.
How can you tell? Simple... are you connected to the Internet at any
time? Yes? then someone/thing is gathering information on you .
