Be that as it may, I'll just leave this here for light reading, though I do suppose you're going to claim these people aren't professionals in the IT field:

Professionals don't use Microsoft products.

Since you compliant appears, to me anyway, to be against Canonical and their methods go here https://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=338 which is for

Code:

Forum: Security

Questions about security in Ubuntu and the official flavours.

Or, if you don't think that forum suits your issue (yes, I know you say you solved the problem, maybe right then you should have marked it as Solved and moved on. The whole thread, not as you did in comment #14) there are other forums you can post in https://ubuntuforums.org/

I followed the instructions which were on the page to mark it [SOLVED]

If the instructions are wrong, FIX THEM.

I think it's always easier to criticize and here is a little unfair to accuse without any proof (presumption of culpability).
So, instead, I would ask the following: Can you prove a user selecting no actually does not stop the greeter from collecting and sending information about you?

i will concede that malware and virus are not exactly the same.
