Hey. If people aren't aware, Microsoft admitted they know who you and where you are at all times and will give your info to the police.
They have a Global Device Identifier (GDID) Tracker that functions as a fingerprint for your PC that can surpass VPNs, proxy servers and countries. Although it can't survive a clean reinstall of Windows (it can survive updates), because Microsoft forces you to go to the internet and log in into a Microsoft account, they will be able to get to you.
Microsoft kept it secret and it was only found out when the FBI tracked a hacker thanks to the information Microsoft gave them.
You should be paying attention to this, and possibly consider moving away from Windows. If a government, especially the US government, doesn't like you for some reason, this could be seriously concerning.
This article specifically notes:
For journalism, activism, or domestic abuse situations, skip Windows and use Linux routed through Tor instead of a commercial VPN. A GDID doesnât care which VPN you use, only that itâs still the same Windows installation.
GDID is the persistent Windows ID that helped FBI trace a Scattered Spider hacker despite VPNs. Here's how it works and how to limit it.
Other important quotes:
What has researchers uneasy is everything else the case reveals. Costin Raiu, a well-known malware researcher, asked on the Three Buddy Problem podcast how much of this exists on other platforms, and whether it is linked more permanently to hardware. Matthew Hickey, another security researcher, called Windows âsurveillance softwareâ.
Two things back that up:
Thereâs no consent screen. A GDID gets assigned when you sign into a Microsoft Account. Appleâs advertising identifier needs an App Tracking Transparency prompt and a visible reset; Androidâs works the same way. GDID has neither, and a Windows reinstall only gets you a new number Microsoft can still get back to the same account.
Then thereâs activation. Massgrave, the group behind Microsoft Activation Scripts, notes that Windows setup sends hardware info to Microsoft and gets identifiers back, the same tokens later used for Store access and licensing: âItâs impossible to prevent Windows from getting a GDID without breaking activation and UWP app[s].â Anyone who lost a license after swapping a motherboard has already met a smaller version of this.
Here's the complaint filed to the court, the primary source for the case mentioned in the article. You can find mentions of GDID on page 30 of the document or 34 of the PDF.
Thank you @just-call-me-zinnia for finding it!
Tumblr people!! I've figured out a way to delete GDID from your computer!

Please do me a favor, reblog for reach!! This went through several days of research and testing!! THANKS
You can get and use windows 11 without logging in with a microsoft account, as of five days ago. I am a local user on my computer. Don't ask me how to do it, because my computer repair guy did it when he reinstalled windows, but there are tutorials out there. Refuse to connect to internet until you're set up and can use the computer freely.
She is very lonely
Why donât we ever talk about the fact that leonard nimoy had to walk off set because of tooth pain and show up at his dentist dressed as spock
Also Brent Spiner broke his mandible during the filming of âThe Gameâ and had to be taken to hospital dressed as Data
Jonathan Frakes got hit with a part of his quarterstaff when it was smacked with a sword and had to go to the hospital dressed in his Q-pid Robin Hood rags.
Tracy Scoggins didnât have to go to the hospital, but while she was filming âDestinyâ in full Cardassian makeup, she âtook the opportunity to walk around the lot at Paramount and scare the schoolchildren on buses. Until finally Security called the stage at DS9 and said, âCould yaâll do something about keeping your aliens contained over there?ââ

Robert Duncan McNeill had an episode of Voyager where his first major make-up day gave him the appearance of gnarly burns all over his face & hands and he said he then âgleefully skipped off to the nearest 7-11 to bask in the horrified looks as he casually shoppedâ. XD
I remember when Nana Visitor told us a story about going to the hospital in her Star Trek outfit (I cant remember what for) one of the interns there was freaking out until it was explained to him that it was just makeup and that her nose did not, in fact break and crumple like an accordion, and that she was there for something else.
I remember reading that Armin Shimmerman once had to race home to his family after an earthquake still in his quark makeup.
Andy Robinson also went home after that earthquake in full Garak makeup and the traffic lights werenât working so people had to make eye contact at the intersections and he says everybody always let him go first
Gates McFadden had a ruptured appendix and when she got to the ER the doctor was like âOMG ITâS CRUSHER!!đĽšâ and she was like well at least Iâm gonna get really well taken care of lol

there are apparently a lot of mushrooms that are poisonous to some people and edible for others. unlike food allergies, itâs not an allergic immune reaction, itâs mushroom poisoning but only for some people

Anthony Machuca, Wake up Steve, our bowls are empty
nobody ever believes me when I list off all of the ways that humans are significantly less sexually dimorphic than people seem to believe and it drives me batshit insane. âyouâre denying the biological reality of sexâ well youâre sticking your fingers in your ears and saying lalalala every time anyone presents you with data that confirms that women and men arenât really that different. and refusing to come to terms with the two-way relationship between the âbiologicalâ and âsocialâ worlds. I think one of us is ignoring the biological sciences here and it isnât me
Someone once told me my biology degree was fake because I said humans weren't sexual dimorphic.
A male human and a female human are roughly the same size and same coloration.
Meanwhile, male black widow spiders are brown and a tenth the size of females. Anglerfish females are a full foot long and have a bioluminescent protrusion on their heads; males are barely half an inch long with no bioluminescence or protrusions. Male elephant seals are ten times bigger than females and have massive snouts. Male orangutans have big jowls and neck sacs that look like goiters, while females look more like other apes. Peacocks have flashy coloration and a long tail that they can display. The females are brown and simple.
Humans aren't sexually dimorphic! You only know someone's gender because of cultural identifiers, like clothing or hair.
The big things for primate sexual dimorphism tend to be canine size and body size. Male primates in sexually dimorphic species tend to have HUGE canine teeth for better threat displays, and are bigger for similar reasons.
Lowland Gorilla males tend to be 2.38x on average the mass of Lowland Gorilla females. Humans? That ratio is something line 1.15.
Male gorilla canines tend to be about 2 inches long, easily twice the length of some of their other teeth. Male humans have canines the exact same length as human female canines and the exact same length as the rest of our teeth.
We are not particularly sexually dimorphic.
Not that it detracts from the point at all, but the bit in the second post about orangutans is only partially true; they effectively have 3 sexes: females, flanged males (which were the ones described), and unflanged males. Unflanged males lack the "jowls" (flanges (crazy how that works)) and neck sacs and are only marginally bigger than females. All males are at one point unflanged, but they may or may not be able to become flanged due to a mixture of environmental and genetic factors, with it only depending on age insofar as it cannot happen until after they're sexually mature (meaning it is distinct from, though dependent on, sexual maturity; a male can be unflanged and sexually mature). (Sexually mature) unflanged males also behave completely differently from flanged ones (or females or juvenile males for that matter). Also let me emphasize again, SOME unflanged males are GENETICALLY capable of becoming flanged; some just Aren't, so it's like Kind Of a development thing Sometimes but not really. Just wanted to yap about this because I saw something related that was technically wrong and felt the need to correct it because I'm a pedant, and also it gave me an excuse to talk about sexual dimorphism in orangutans and how it's super weird and super interesting. :)

THIS IS THE HARDEST I HAVE LAUGHED IN SO LONG YOU HAVE CURED MY DEPRESSION
This is one of the greatest posts Iâve ever witnessed. The payoff was amazing.
My roommate heard it going and went âOH MY GOD is it EVER going to resolve?â then the payoff hit and she busted up laughing
"But won't children be confused by all the LGBT-"
Yesterday I saw a mother with a baby carriage, being followed by a girl of about 4-6 years old on a bicycle. The kid started ringing her bike bell like RING RING RING RING RING RING RING, and the mother turned to look behind them to see whether they were being followed by a cyclist who desperately needs to pass them for the sake of everyone's safety.
And the little girl - who just rang the goddamn bell herself 5 seconds ago - also turned to look.
Kids are confused by everything at all times. They don't know jack shit. About anything.
i remember being like 8 or 9 and being told that my dadâs ex-wife was no longer diane and we were to address her as daniel now. my reaction: âok.â
me and my brother later had a small discussion about whether that could happen randomly (conclusion: no, he probably had to file papers or something) and whether daniel should now be referred to as dadâs ex-husband (conclusion: yes but only to see the face heâll make) but at no point did we find it like... alarming? the world is big and weird. we were used to it.
finding out a sorta-relative could just change genders off camera, as it were, was a whole lot less head-splodey than finding out there were no squirrels in australia!
Thereâs no what
"Won't they be confused by all the--" So what if they are? Life is often confusing. That's part of how we learn. Part of the job of an adult is to help confused kids learn and understand things. There's no obligation to protect the kids from the confusing things. Quite the reverse.
In my experience anyone using this BS excuse isn't worried about a child's potential confusion, but their own, which they don't want to admit to having.
theres no squirrels in australia???
Aussie here, I DIDN'T KNOW SQUIRRELS WERE ACTUALLY REAL FOR THE FIRST EIGHT YEARS OF MY LIFE NO JOKE I THOUGHT THEY WERE A MYTHICAL ANIMAL LIKE UNICORNS
WHAT??
Also kids are far less likely to be confused by something the younger they learn about it. Kiddo had queer people in his life and casual references to queerness before he could even talk. It was never confusing for him. It was normal.
Squirrels were an invasive species to Australia but they never managed to gain a foothold and were eradicated within a few years of their arrival.
The term Boston Marriage for two women who live together without a guy has been around since the late 18th century and they sure werenât all just good pals saving money by splitting bills.
Also, now I know why the last time I traveled with an Australian she shouted âSquirrel!â approximately every minute.
