    no thanks.

    I would rather put all my private data at risk of hackers than put all my private data at risk of corporate interests.

    at least when I pay the hackers they give me my shit back. what’s Microsoft’s excuse?

      Firstly, that is absolutely not always the case.

      Secondly, hackers do a lot more than simply encrypt your data and hold it for ransom.
