    Insiders are not MS employees, though. That is also not the same as trained QA or security. You or I can join the insiders program. It is essentially public beta

      More like alpha. Public beta are the normal (non-Insider) “Preview” versions… then they use a staged update deployment for QA.

      And yes, MS is saving a lot of money on trained employees by using paying customers as testers.
