Microsoft has admitted that the new Windows 10 operating system tracks keystrokes and examines audio input. The new operating system, currently a free download for users with Windows 7 and Windows 8 licences, not only tracks how long it takes to open different types of files, the make and model of device you're using, but it's also logging keystrokes and collecting voice recordings. Microsoft will not delete data already collected from Windows 10 users.

That reasoning may apply to keystrokes, but it definitely does not apply to audio recordings. Not everything that is on audio is meant for that computer. What if you get a phone call during your tests, and talk about confidential stuff on the phone?
