The privacy concerns. The letter from the Mozilla guy. I'm not even saying that they aren't valid. The vitriol and high-horse moralizing. How is that productive HN style discourse? None of it's constructive. How can we talk about these issues in a way that doesn't blow them out of proportion and actually exchange some information?
I'm not sure how this is blowing them out of proportion. The 'Express' configuration that nearly every user will run with sends virtually everything you do to Microsoft. Please explain how that is not a serious privacy concern.
