is it true that microsoft, or there is a way, that almost all computer are able to be monitored by people that u don't know?

There is one sure way to prevent anyone from hacking into your system, stay off all networks(this includes the internet) and don't let anyone use your computer.

Of course it can be made to seem unrealistic from any angle, though making sure that you follow the correct guidelines to computer safety can increase your chances to prevent all the types of malware. How to Prevent Malware
