MS is as bad as FB/Google under that creep Nadella. And there was a Skype scandal regarding employees listening in on calls when the subtitle option was turned on. I would use a for-pay video chat service were a secure/private one available.

If the free market actually worked, there would be an explosion in products delivering privacy and real security. And we would ward off another possible global disaster. No prediction algorithms are needed to speculate that these opportunistic creeps (FB, Google and similar creeps) will eventually be sloppy enough to let a horrible computer virus get out of hand.
