pXc-Coding has sent in DoNotSpy10, the first anti-spy tool for Windows 10.

With the release of Windows 10 came the concerns about privacy and tracking. While we think that privacy, as we know, is virtually dead, that does not mean we should be relaxed about it. Not at all. pXc-Coding has sent in DoNotSpy10, the first ever anti-spy tool for Windows 10. It allows you to set a restore point just in case. The interface simply gives you a list of areas where tracking or privacy is a concern. App access is always a big one as is Password Reveal but there are a couple you might want to leave alone including Windows Defender and Windows Updates. Watch out during the install for one third party program it offers to install. A portable version would be nice here as well as suggested items to remove that won't affect your system security. Otherwise, it's a great start for the first Windows 10 anti-privacy tool.
