Apparently, Microsoft has patented the ridiculously evil "advertising framework" which will use "context data" from the user's own hard-drive to deliver ads. Yes, they want to use your data (including text documents, music, photos, etc.) to sell you stuff. Of course this data will be secure and anonymous. And, of course this will not be another vector for malware. Not to mention the potential for embarrassing spam based on content you'd rather no one knew you had.
Microsoft continues to view users as a source of revenue rather than as customers.
