I am sending this again with the equals removed, I hope.  Also note that the 
link spans two lines so you may have to cut and paste it into your browser 
and remove any spaces or equals for it to work.

I came across this and thought that those of you who are diving into Win 10

Your PC May Have Been Uploading Windows 10 to Others without You Knowing It

Windows 10 upgraders may not be aware of a new addition to Windows that has
the features of a torrent client. It's called Windows Update Delivery 
Optimization (WUDO).
 WUDO is a peer-to-peer delivery system that allows Microsoft to upload the
Windows 10 bits stored on your system to PCs around the world. It is an 
ingenious way to spread the load of distributing Windows updates and also 
apps
Unfortunately, it is enabled by default on most home systems and not 
everybody is happy about that. If you are concerned about using your upload 
bandwidth or just leery about connecting to a bunch of unknown computers, 
here is how to disable WUDO.

1.  Open the Start Menu

 2.  Click or tap "Settings"

 3.  Select "Update & security"

4.  In the left-side pane, select "Windows Update"

5.  In the right-side pane, select "Advanced options"

6.  In the new right-side pane that opens, select "Choose how updates are 
delivered"

7.  Use the slider to turn WUDO off.

Some additional information about WUDO can be found in this post.
