FDRS isn't running on my windows laptop, but three programs named "Ford Identification Service" are, and they use a lot of resources while running. What are these things doing? Yikes.

They are watching to see which one of us is talking shit about Ford so they can blacklist our VIN's

I found it configured to auto startup a bunch of drivers/connectors for various ford cables and devices. Disabled them. Not needed.
That's what I expected it was doing.
