I've got bugger all to hide, either, but that doesn't mean I like strangers snooping on me.
In fact, I really don't like it. A lot.

Microsoft is delivering its promised Windows 10X emulator and SDK, plus a refresh of its Android-based Duo SDK as its next milestones along its dual-screen device path. "You're on ten here, all the way up. Where can you go from there?"
((Yes, the quote has been altered. I apologize to the purists.))
As I've seen elsewhere - this means that there will now be a Windows Subsystem for Windows

Of course when The (dual-screen) Device finally appears it will be $3,495USD $10,995USD but no matter because it's "DUAL-SCREEN"!!! Squeeeeeeee!!!!! 
EDIT
Came back and edited with an unbelievable value because the first one didn't seem hyperbolic enough to let people know it was a joke. $10,995 is a joke, people. 
EDIT 2
This is supposed to be a commentary on how expensive those Microsoft Surface pads are, ok? They're expensive for their (small) computing power.
PS - There probably won't be an EDIT 3.

Is it a container if you can flush it after using it?

Crypto AG made millions selling encryption devices to more than 120 countries, which unknowingly transmitted intel back to the CIA. Who needs back doors when they're coming in the front door?

Software called TextFooler can trick natural-language processing (NLP) systems into misunderstanding text just by replacing certain words in a sentence with synonyms. Beware the Thesaurus, my son. The mandibles that masticate, the talons that appropriate.

Now we are going to have man-in-the-middle situations, and my actual words are going to be replaced with the list of DHS monitored words[^], and the CIA is then going to come hunt me down.
Or vice versa... I'm going to have a vocal-reprocessor which will capture my voice and thesaurus-ize the vocabulary into non infractionary notes and then play it into Alexas mic...

Chowdhury told UBNow: We don’t want the AI system just to mimic human behavior
... We want it to develop tactics that anticipate human behavior, the better to kill them with.Chowdhury told UBNow: we want it to form a deeper understanding of what motivates human actions
... the better to kill them with.Chowdhury told UBNow: That’s what will lead to more advanced AI
... That we can use to murder everyone who doesn't worship us.

To make it short. The crucial difference between evolution and revolution is if the change is gradual (evolution) or disruptive (revolution). From the primordial soup, they arise (assuming they do make the cut this time)

Windows Server 2008 servers will no longer boot if prerequisites aren't installed before applying the out-of-band KB4539602 update released by Microsoft on February 7 to patch a wallpaper bug. Windows 7 won't stop, Windows Server 2008 won't start, and Windows 10 is juuuuuuust right
Because of the wallpaper fix.
A wallpaper fix.
Wall.
Paper.
fix.

I shouldn't be surprised if it's because of the old "live wallpaper" thing, which was part of IE.
So it's edge that killed weven and server 2008.
... And any last remaining vestige of interest in using ms web browsers.

Anyone who integrates nice-to-have features such as wallpaper into the security mechanisms of the O/S should be hanged, drawn, and quartered.
