I'm nervous about where this will head. There is just so much potential for abuse, from hackers that just want money to state actors to oppressive regimes. Yes the data is local, but the way it's summarized, pre-classified and apparently nowhere near adequately filtered opens so many potential vectors. And Microsoft seem still adamant about pushing this :/

It's one of the microsoft gimmick that will be shipped because someones bonuses are on the line. It will die in the next few years. There would be ways do disable it.
