So, how doe Microsoft remove content... and what "service" of theirs will I not be using that gives them the ability to 
remove (or even SEE) what content I have on *MY* computer?  Unless they have a warrant, and probable cause, they're 
only allowed to see two things.... JACK and SHIT as far as I'm concerned....

Congratulations, Amazon/Apple/Google/Microsoft, you're shipping systems
that are pre-compromised at the factory.
