microsoft has been Beta trialling a spyware program "Windows

nothing there.

Imagine a world without this concern. Wouldn't it be nice?
Asking Microsoft to provide a windows defender seems to me to be like
asking the fox to guard the hen house. Really all Microsoft has to
do to defend its software from all the spy/mal/bot ware is to write
good code and good specs for its non-OEM software.
Any other solution is simply a revenue collecting device.
