Concur.

I think the main driver for Win10 is its main detractor.

MS is trying to insert their presence into every transaction. They recognize communications and bandwidth are being spread amongst all digital devices, so they are changing the market models to capture future market share.

Only problem is the PC culture now uses the PC as a personal tool, rather than a marketing agent.

I find it very nerve racking to try and use the Internet, only to have multiple virus / malware / Trojan Horses / you name it, encroach upon all my bandwidth and leaving me with sometimes less than 10% available for my original search.

I grow weary of the ad distractions, which limit my breadth of searches and distract from my focus.

Win10 constantly causes me to waste 10%-60% of my time on the computer to simply understand what changes it has made since the last time I adapted to it. I then leave the internet without any questions being answered or new solutions to their contrived problems.

They need to provide a simple permanent method to opt out of the 3rd party manipulation of our internet communications.
