Forced updates, pervasive monitoring (spyware), intentional engineering to make turning off all the tracking as difficult as possible (malware), ability to delete or disable any software/hardware remotely (virus), ads built in (adware), installing without your permission (virus). How is Win10 not malware?

Roger to all those points.

I installed it in an old test machine, and really did enjoy it at first. It’s really speedy on that old c2duo laptop. But...after experiencing the update scheme and the flaming hoops you must jump through to turn off the data vacuum, I hit the brakes on more upgrades in my domain.

Even worse, they’re sending those rotten policies down to win 7. I’m strategizing my future tech now.
