WOW! That's big. Does it have LLM inside? How many backdoors? I bet EULA is longer than the source code. Super important update. Deserves Windows global version increment. Win 12 no less. Fucking Chtulhu's ass, 13! "Windows 13, network edition", only for $399.99!

Don't you mean: "How much speedtest?"

Transfer a file from one pc to another on your network and you will get your speed test, theres no need for some telemetry laden spyware to do something I could already do.

Specifically in Linux you can just use iperf assuming you have a box on the other end.

Just another way to track your data and metrics. If they control the servers for speed test, they control the info on weak coverage areas and so on and can sell it to the best buyer.

Most people in slower speeds areas don't exactly have a choice in provider. If you only have one ISP in your area, the speed you get is just what they offer.
