Microsoft: We Can Remotely Delete Windows 8 Apps

Microsoft's Windows Store terms of use for Windows 8 allow the company to remove 'apps or data' from your Windows 8 devices.

"We may change or discontinue certain apps or content offered in the Windows Store at any time, for any reason. Sometimes, we do so to respond to legal or contractual requirements. In cases where your security is at risk, or where we're required to do so for legal reasons, you may not be able to run apps or access content that you previously acquired or purchased a license for," said Microsoft in the Windows Store terms.

"If the Windows Store, an app, or any content is changed or discontinued, your data could be deleted or you may not be able to retrieve data you have stored," Microsoft added.
