Microsoft and Privacy It sounds like Microsoft is finally beginning to respect people's privacy. This article talks about the impending rollout of Windows Media Player 9 and the improved level of privacy controls. I tend to like Microsoft and their products. I recall reading an article sometime back that reviewed MS Money versus Quicken. Money received a much stronger review but came with the caveat that it required a Microsoft Passport account to function fully and that consumers should only buy the product if they trusted Microsoft to know their finances. It wasn't worded quite that way, but I was left with the impression that Microsoft was gathering information that they may or may not be using. The whole Passport concept seems pretty neat, and I think it could help further expand the world of e-commerce if it was in wider use. But few folks will use it until they are certain the company can be trusted. It looks as if, thanks to judicial mandates, that may finally be happening. |
