Phones is absolutely a valid point these days, IMO OS > web + web browser in terms of what you can get.
MS and google both know what porn you are looking at. What you buy from your PC etc… MS knows how much time you are spending playing games + has screenshots of all your encrypted conversations etc…
There are so few native desktop apps these days, it’s all on the web.
And the browser can glean a lot more about user interaction than just web traffic, like where you hover, what parts of the page you’re interacting with, etc.
That’s why I said that (combined with phone), Google probably knows more.
I feel like MS and Google should be switched. Web probably has more harvestable info. Plus phones.
The OS handles all the network requests, can take screenshots, and track your eyes
But yeah Google Linux is way more popular than Windows for personal use

But it’s probably a pretty close competition
