He's got a point.
I too, hate MS, Google, Apple, and everyone else spying on what I do and where I am, but unless you are going to set up shop with the Amish, you had better accept it or start to seriously group up and try to put an end to it via legal channels.
Just turning on your computer and putting it online you basically better be prepared to give all your personal info away.
I do wish there was a cloudless contact moving way though, just in case you don't have internet for some reason.
