I mean, even although it's common knowledge that Google stick their noses in to every single aspect of your lives if you give them even half a chance, they still manage to have a few "accidents" along the way:
Oops, we've accidentally be recording and
listening to your conversations!Silly us, we've accidentally been
examining the traffic from your WiFi networks.
We even forget to tell you we
hide microphones we don't tell you about inside our hardware! We are such airheads!
And yet Chrome remains the most popular web browser by far, Google remains the most popular search engine by far, Android remains the most popular mobile OS by far, and people continue to be more than happy to pay for the privilege of bugging their own homes with devices which are spying on them.
I'm fairly sure that if Microsoft did come out with something like that, it would be forgotten within a week and wouldn't hurt their bottom line whatsoever.
