You only have to run through a modern Windows installer to understand how screwed you are if you install it. Last time I did this for a disposable Windows VM (a couple of years ago) I remember having to click through a whole bunch of prompts asking about all the different types of data Microsoft wanted my computer to send them. Often the available answers weren't "yes" or "no" but more like "share all data" vs "share just some data". After that I recall being forced to sign up for an outlook account just to create a local login unless I unplugged my network cable during the install. I've heard they have closed that loophole in recent installers.

I'd already long since migrated away from Windows but if I'd been harbouring any lingering doubts, that was enough to remove them.
