It was only a matter of time until this happened. Microsoft is now checking the Personal Identification Number of your Operating System when you use its famous Windows Update site. Here is the new privacy statement of Windows Update, which can be view by clicking on "About Windows Update" on the left side of the Windows Update site:

Windows Update Privacy Statement

Windows Update is committed to protecting your privacy. To provide you with the appropriate list of updates, Windows Update must collect a certain amount of configuration information from your computer. This information includes:



Operating-system version number and Product Identification number
Internet Explorer version number
Version numbers of other software
Plug and Play ID numbers of hardware devices

The Product Identification number is collected to confirm that you are running a validly licensed copy of Windows. A validly licensed copy of Windows ensures that you will receive on-going updates from Windows Update. Windows Update does not collect your name, address, e-mail address, or any other form of personally identifiable information. The configuration information collected is used only for the period of time that you are visiting the site, and is not saved.

To provide you with the best possible service, Windows Update also tracks and records how many unique machines visit its site and whether the download and installation of specific updates succeeded or failed. In order to do this, Windows generates a Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) that is stored on your computer to uniquely identify it. Windows Update records the GUID of the computer that attempted the download, the ID of the item that you attempted to download and install, and information about your operating system version and Internet Explorer version.

Because Windows Update does not collect personally identifiable information, the configuration information and GUID cannot be used to identify you.

Eu vi esta noticia no Clubic, específicamente relacionado com o Windows 2000, onde apenas referenciavam a informação da licença do Win2k utilizada.

Mas se eles tão a aplicar isto a todos os Windows (XP incluido), afinal de contas pq é que só se lembraram agora? É bem mais lógico que o Product Activation...basta verificarem o número de x que a mesma licença faz downloads através do WUpdate...e depois trace routes a toda a gente.

Se se aplica também ao XP...então o Product Activation não era suposto ser a última coisa que a MS nos iria pedir para verificar se o software era pirata?

A montanha p*riu um rato...bem pequenino...lol.
