Microsoft want to have the worlds greatest health database. So they have made a wrist device that can monitor your health 24/7 and it will also read Android and iOS data.

You will only get its full potential if you hook it up with a Windows phone though.
That way Microsoft will know everything about your health and maybe even you will get some information about your own condition.

That is good isn't it?

This device will probably also reveal if you are a drug addict or an alcoholic. And that would be interesting for the Government, because it is illegal.
They just might get the idea that they are entitled to look in on all of these data, in which case Microsoft must compli. (Easier with Microsoft than with Apple and Google since they keep the encryption keys - which must be handed out if the US government does so require).

Let us hope MS does not get the idea to sell that information to insurance companies....
This is primarily a device full of sensors, meant to collect as much data as possible...

They do add "with as little intrusion as possible" but what does that even mean in this context?

According to Microsoft this thing will help you cherish the moments and make the most of them..and inspire you...guide you... stay connected everywhere... and make you more productive....

So what are you waiting for?
