> Windows 10 China Government Edition

> The Windows 10 China Government Edition is based on Windows 10 Enterprise Edition, which already includes many of the security, identity, deployment, and manageability features governments and enterprises need. The China Government Edition will use these manageability features to remove features that are not needed by Chinese government employees like OneDrive, to manage all telemetry and updates, and to enable the government to use its own encryption algorithms within its computer systems.

I love how their new hardware announcement is just tacked onto the end of the announcement of Windows 10 China Government Edition.

Why would you even announce something like this in a cute PR blog post? Only thing I could think of is it's to impress shareholders with the fact that they're trusted by a rich and powerful government organization. Maybe that's a good enough reason alone.

LOL. That's the first time I've heard of that. I thought I had access to all Windows 10 versions, but that one's not on my access list. Includes its own special encryption algorithms. Oh boy!
