It's so confusing to disable that a (admittedly self-proclaimed, but still) "security expert" got it wrong several times, and even after that it still continued sending data to Microsoft. It reminds me of the same scummy tricks used by spyware/adware in the past e.g. "do not disable for the best user experience", double-negative wording, etc.
I believe it's still (deliberately) really easy to pirate/crack Windows, so I could get the Enterprise edition if I wanted --- but I wouldn't want it even if it was legally free, just like all sorts of other malware and unwanted software.
