Why would I need to be careful?

OK, worse case scenario. Big bad MS relay is spying on me. They report that to the software companies.

How would they use that evidence in court? Spying on citizens is not exactly legal for a company to do. Hell, even the government has to go through procedures.

Imagine the bad publicity MS would get from that.

And it's not stealing. Says the courts, it's copyright infringement. If I went to court the charges would be copyright infringement.
