Microsoft’s telemetry isnt ideal, but they’re not selling your Windows usage data. That is explicitly just used for the OS developers to diagnose issues and evaluate what features are being used.
Your bing data and shit they are absolutely selling, but it has a different privacy agreement.
Almost no company is selling your data. They’re selling services that they can offer based on the data collected about you. The data itself is too valuable to be sold, as their monopoly on it is the basis for their business model. That’s why all these “we’re not selling your personal data” statements are pointless at best and dishonest at worst.
