Did you know that there are three Windows updates that you don't want to install? They are Microsoft tracking software. KB3075249,KB3080149,and KB3068708. These have been watching what you do online. Don't install, OK?

If you have your machine setup for automatic updates, it is difficult to "opt-out" of these. Move to Linux - no externally reporting tracking software there.

I just uncheck them before they download. It's not too hard really. Once they are unchecked, Windows can't install them.

Good job ! If you're running 10 now, look at the list of already installed updates as they might already be there. One was on one of my units and I removed it.
