So I installed Windows 10 LTSC and are trying to protect my privacy because I don't want to upload my porn habits to Microsoft.
In settings I've turned off everything in privacy. In group policies I've turned off telemetry. I've also disabled "cloud-delivered protection" and "automatic sample submission" in Windows Security. I let real-time protection be on because I read it is handled locally. Finally I've turned off all three SmartScreen protections.

Just use Windows 10 AME: ameliorated.info If you don't want to ruin your already configured installation, run the scripts as described in the Documentation, it'll (almost) completely debotnet and debloat your Windows.
Use proxy and block any server who's not in your whitelist

>you wouldn't tell lies on the internet, would you user? I'm not. PhotoDNA was the meme that was posted on Jow Forums constantly with the anime girl character. PhotoDNA is a microsoft product but it's sold to websites to auto-detect CP uploaded to their servers. It was never part of Windows 10, it was never mentioned alonside Windows 10, basically someone found the trailer for the product saw it was Microsoft and started the fake news that it's Windows 10.
Windows 10's privacy issues are limited to telemetry in the vain of profiling your typing for the search bar and email app and such. They're not actually uploading snapshots of your files. Oh and before it's brought up, the "proof" that shows a screenshot being uploaded to MS was literally during pre-release where the whole point was literally testing for MS. Release versions don't do that.
If you use windows then you don't care about privacy.

What a great distro

>people have actually convinced themselves that windows ten is scanning their files and snitching on the contents to someone (government/cia/nsa/alloftheabove) >any attempts to explain that no, it's not doing that, just makes you part of the globalist jewish redditor SJW conspiracy this website isn't worth anyone's time or effort desu

>windows 10 telemetry ISN'T recording whether people launch applications from the desktop or taskbar or start menu >it's ACTUALLY uploading my porn collection to microsoft and reading all my documents >and THAT'S why i need to torrent ISOs from some guy on the internet, and use another guy's software to break the OS' security and activate it, and also disable parts of the OS' security software, and stop the OS from downloading any updates at all, because windows 10 is insecure and buggy it's like, how do you communicate with these martians. is there any point? should they be left to stew in their delusions? i honestly don't know

You forgot to uninstall windows

Windows 10 is actually scanning your files. Then it sends data to microsoft servers regularly. I mean really it's not a hard link to make.

The OS crashes if you block it from phoning home to MS, user..tin-foil hat nonsense aside, thdre are serious privacy-issues going on with Windows 10. Twenty minutes in Google would show you this, or you can keep naysaying the countles amount of people who know far more than you who have told everyone these things.
it's not a hard link to make. but there's a vast, yawning difference between some automatic service being all 'i found this file and i'm not sure if it's safe or not, what do you think' 'nah it's ok' 'ok cool' and a human checking his inbox and 'ahahahahaha this guy has 1000000000000 images of anime girls in their underpants hahahahaha hey jeff come take a look at this dork haha'

like do you see the point i'm making that an OS 'scanning files' is entirely normal, usual behaviour. likewise an OS 'phoning home' is also normal, usual behaviour.
what i'm getting at is that brainworm-ridden Jow Forumstards are immediately assuming that their OS is 'scanning' their loli folder and 'phoning home' to upload their loli folder to the NSA. and that's dumb

>an OS 'scanning files' is entirely normal, usual behaviour no, it's not
>an OS 'phoning home' is also normal, usual behaviour depends on the data it's sending home, you are delusional if you think MS isn't taking advantage of the sheer amount of data they have at their fingertips
Ryder Gonzalez
windows has had a built-in antivirus/antimalware service wince i think vista? if not 7. that's just one reason to 'scan files'.
>you are delusional if you think MS isn't taking advantage of the sheer amount of data they have at their fingertips i'd counter that by pointing out you're delusional if you think your os is literally, actually uploading /loli to the NSA or whatever. because thats literally 'but they COULD, so they MUST BE, so actually they ARE' levels of justification. which is ridiculous.
Evan Carter
Since nobody has bothered to actually answer your question, you need to run this: wpd.app

>t. retard Thinking a corporation is benevolent is what got us into this mess. If Microsoft has the power to do something malicious for gain you must assume they’re doing it.

ghacks.net/2015/08/14/comparison-of-windows-10-privacy-tools/ I use shutup 10 and W10privacy on LTSC that gets rid of alot of shit but honestly to remove everything would probably break windows 10 itself due to how scummy ms are and require alot of fixing i'm personally trying to learn and switch to linux and i say anyone else should as well
