France’s data protection watchdog has slammed Microsoft Windows 10 for collecting excessive amounts of personal data and failing to use strong security controls. Microsoft has until Sept. 30 to respond to the notice from the chair of the National Data Protection Commission. Microsoft says it has built strong privacy protections into Windows 10 and is continually working on improvements. The move by CNIL against Microsoft follows the European Court of Justice invalidating the Safe Harbor framework in October 2015, ruling that the U.S. failed to provide an adequate level of protection for EU citizens’ data.”]
