I'm blocking addresses at the router daily. I could live with 11 if I could uninstall their garbage. I've tried any number of things to keep crapilot 365 off of my domain machines but I'm told I have to have the enterprise edition to do that.
Yeah, legislation needs passed that any software on any device purchased or leased must be removable without voiding warranties or service contracts. That would go a long way towards making phones, computers, and other devices less invasive and actually privacy protected.
For now, ctt winutil does a pretty good job at removing the cruft. I've long since switched to debian for my daily driver, but as a remote-access sunshine host for games that require kernel level anticheat, it's surprisingly usable.
For anyone looking to keep windows around in some capacity, I strongly recommend it. https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil
I need something automated that I can run on each machine in the domain. I haven't read any of the docs on this utility. Perhaps it has a way to do that.
