The only thing I saw was a Microsoft document that showed software defects. Defects that could be potentially be used by hackers (like windows XP). Which to me, does not show malicious intend, but bad programming.

After Bloombergs fake story about embedded chips in motherboards, I do not trust these articles.

Neither do I trust China, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, Reddit, etc, not to share my personal data with governments and other bad actors. Even Duck-go-go send personal data to their servers due to "software error".
But China does not lock me up, if I say that "its ok to be white" or report on science against the narrative.

Is there a clear technical indication of it being spyware? There may be some new technical info that I missed.
