May i know who was it that said this?
RMS. He's said this because, either he has discovered it or someone has told him.
A friend has Windows installed on her desktop (by the vendor) and called me for help because she keeps getting messages about it not being a licensed copy. Clearly this happens because MS is monitoring online unlicensed copies (she didn't know the difference and has asked the vendor to implement a license).
If that doesn't count as spyware, then what does? However, with all due respect to RMS, I prefer to think of most implementations of the OS as malware (and reserve my opinions only on the ones I haven't tried myself).
