This is data collected by browser plugins and other services of websites visited
The worst offender was a popular safe surfing tool called Web of Trust
Researchers found data it recorded could be used to reveal a browser's identity
Records of online habits could be particular embarrassing for public figures

Windows 10 snooping? Most users want us to record what they do on their PC says Microsoft (http://www.techrepublic.com/article/windows-10-snooping-most-users-want-us-to-record-what-they-do-on-their-pc-says-microsoft/http://)

Microsoft proudly states that over 70% of users leave all data mining totally intact. They just don't care about their privacy or rights to use their computer as they wish. They probably love junk solicitation calls on their cell phones too.

RockinRobbins management mantra #1: If you treat people badly enough long enough they will demand it. Corollary: Don't take people's acquiescence to an oppressive policy as evidence of how they would wish to be treated.
