Funny; Just yesterday I was thinking:

"Even beyond what we know about the spyware built into Windows 10, why is it that they are so adamant about everyone upgrading to Windows 10, 'Free', when they usually charge about $180.00 (or more for the 'pro' version) for a new operating System? They surely aren't doing it out of generosity."

"SOMEONE has to be paying them to do this."

"Is it the Feds? Is it (other) evil corporations who want to have all of our data so then can specifically target market us? Soros , The Bilderbergers / NWO types The Lizard People? The Crab People from South Park?"

Maybe my tin hat is wrapped too tight, but seems to me that something inimical is going on

It’s the developers. MSDN licenses cost thousands of dollars year, users have never been the source of MS money, it’s owning the platform everybody else has to use to sell THEIR stuff to those users that makes them money.
