Microsoft Windows as spyware?
Funny — According to the Anti-Spyware Coalition, which includes Microsoft, EarthLink, McAfee and Hewlett-Packard:
Spyware impairs "users' control over material changes that affect their user experience, privacy or system security; use of their system resources, including what programs are installed on their computers; or collection, use and distribution of their personal or otherwise sensitive information"
I don't know about you, but to me that looks like the definition of an operating system.
