If this is widespread, I'd call it incompetent. In any event, glad
I'm not running Winblows.

We're all beta-testers now, but at least Linux isn't charging us for the
honour.

Right, the same thing that caused me to switch to Linux for two years
in 2019, Win10 being beta tested publicly. If M$ is doing that now,
and this bug isn't just a bad one-off mistake, I am *really* glad I
already was running Linux.

I kept going back to Windows because my hardware was always supported
properly by it (it was suspend/wake on my previous laptop, and on this
one it is the fingerprint sensor), but disregarding the privacy
violations would be a serious mistake in the long run. Besides, I've
never been a fan of proprietary formats.
