OTOH, it might be that M$ cut a deal with the government so that when a
user creates a word.doc or whatever, the "extra" info wil help the NSA

Already happened! As I recall, the BTK Killer in Kansas City was nabbed
when he sent a computer disk with a Microsoft Office document to the
cops. Oops, he forgot that it stored the 'user info' identifying him as
user "Dennis" on the local church's computer. Didn't take long after that
to figure out who he was.
