Tons of websites record your mouse, keyboard, and scroll activity, and can play back exactly what you saw on your browser window. This is called session replay. There are pre-made libraries for this you can import so it’s super common.
nah only the minidump is reported back which only contains the memory the crashing stack is using. Sending the full dump would requires uploading gigabytes of data which would cripple any home internet as they mostly have very limited upstream bandwidth.
Though iirc a system crash report can include a kernel dump, which can contain things like private keys.
Though realistically, Microsoft controls your OS. They could easily add code to allow them to grab whatever they want from your system without any logging (by your system anyways).
That actually makes me wonder if there are any apps that run on both a system and the router that system is connected to to determine if the internet traffic as reported by the system (to the user) is the same as what the router sees as a way to detect anything using network resources but bypassing the normal network stack.
you certainly can just run wireshark on your PC and your router, then compare them in the end of the day (with your router’s file filtered your PC’s source address)

They most certainly do not.
Yeah, sorry, I meant for anyone worried about windows crash reports.
Microsoft controls your windows OS.

Correction: GrapheneOS has implemented permission controls for sensors. It also has sandboxing and permission scopes to prevent many of those leaks.
However, Graphene is not available to everyone, and it’s still problematic due to bystanders/passerby.
