People are just complained the skype won't work after dws install

Skype Servers share the same subnet as the Microsoft data collection servers. What can one do, short of an SPI firewall, it's a compromise. But what would be good, is an easy option at app start up that explains the dilemma and offers the user an informed choice to leave Skype operational

Well, I've decided to put everything up into this single post-message.
First things first, DWS has found its last refuge in this repository which has the latest and probably the last versions of this utility. All other resources, including the official and currently abandoned GitHub repository of previous and original developers cannot be trusted anymore for the reasons explained herein later.
Secondly, and now I would like to turn to history, as you all probably know, DWS(abandoned GitHub repository), which stands for Destroy Windows Spying, originally was developed almost solely by a guy who goes by nickname Nummer, with Akita Inu on his avatar, whose Tweeter account named @nummerok was also recently abandoned, who, for quite a some time has been thinking about rewriting the utility from scratch(tweet) until one day he decided to pass it all over to a new developer whom he thought he could trust, whose name was renessans, Twitter account name was @renessans_bz. The developer represented themselves as a Russian based company, RENESSANS LLC, with site renessans.bz, that possesses enough resources(tweet) to continue the development and to take the utility to a whole new level. Since community trusted Nummer, and despite there were a few, who thought that sweet talks of the new developer among with some noticed nuances like fake physical address of a legal entity, such as company, just can bring no good, we gave the new developer a chance. After a short period of joint development, during which some minor changes were implemented and one major feature was added, Nummer handed over the control and the development to the new developer and retired. The major feature was the updater, which was supposed to be used later for distribution of malicious pieces of code, but renessans did not come up with anything smarter than polluting his potential botnet with adware malware, which to be said was quickly detected, followed by a tweet from Nummer, but unfortunately at that point he's lost the control already.
Thus, the intentions were revealed and the developer along with his company disappeared, leaving the community with a well-known utility that could not be trusted anymore at then current state. That's when our good friend known by nickname Wohlstand stepped in to heal the disease by removing the updater and to regain the lost trust, and that's how two last versions of DWS have seen the light, #Where. These versions now are hosted under Wohlstand's repository and can be safely downloaded and used, but keep in mind several things - DWS has not been actively developed for several years already which renders it morally outdated and as such it cannot be used as a proper Windows spying capabilities removal tool; Since DWS is not another tweaker, but as the name suggests is a spying features destroyer, and as such it does not discriminates the applications by actual need to some user, but prevents from any of these applications, known at the time of development to be spying after their users, from contacting their servers and actually removing(destroying) some of them, so don't be surprised that Windows Store, Skype or any other very useful for you application cannot be used anymore, and this is the reason behind one of the rules of this public chat. The source code is published so you can see what utility does and try to revert back manually in case you disabled restore points and thus none were created check the history of this chat since some of very useful apps were restored by others and they have published here the clues.
There were some talks about giving a new life to this project, but none of us have the time needed to commit ourselves to it, not now and not in the foreseeable future, that's said of course anything and everything can change.
Last thing to be mentioned is our fraternal group that is used as a chat for general subjects for people from here. It's relatively small audience though, that's why we want to keep this group clean from other subjects, but DWS.

Thanks for the summary.
Q. If the app is nolonger under active development, is there a need for this group? Maybe there is if its a conduit for rallying support.
With creators update, Microsoft made significant changes to Windows 10, their Azure hosted SaaS IP ranges have also migrated and new services may have been introduced. As DWS becomes increasingly outdated, it may only serve as a false sense of security which could end up doing more harm than good?

So if anyone can spare some time to get involved submitting git requests, I would think it would come with considerable kudos. Perhaps setting up the option for community financial contributions could help tho
