MS straight up ignores or resets them silently

That was the thing that bothered me the most. Sure I could go through every subsystem individually and make the changes to make the system more private and secure. That would take a while to do manually, or use one of the tools that do this. But, every time anything has an update you can't trust that it didn't reset a setting.

Running the tool after every update is annoying and after a while it just got frustrating to see settings, that I know I've disabled (because, the tool does it every time), which are now re-activated thanks to an update.

It's just scummy behavior.
