but remember , an updated computer is a mostly safer computer ,LOL
Your “LOL” suggests you are making fun of updates.
Let me tell you this, MS updates do keep out the unwanted hacker kids living in Mom’s basement. And they do make it safer for NSA to backdoor your information so you won’t detect it and have to worry.
You just don’t understand this extra security is your ticket to freedom. It’s like gun free zones keeping out criminals.
Yes, but I should get to decide when my computer gets updated.
Not really. I have a Windows 8 computer that says "Most recent check for updates: Never Updates were installed: Never". The reason my computer is safer than avereage is I installed a few selected security patches (for potential remote compromise flaws). And nothing else. No new software containing new flaws.
Before issuing official updates they should have their employees and some assorted non-employee users test them out. It is amazing how much software gets issued that is broken and has to be fixed.
I just had an iPad update after which the iPad kept forgetting how to find the cell service. Two weeks later a new update came out to fix some bugs and things. Problem went away. But, how does software like that get issued in the first place.
