“Microsoft will start pushing out a Windows 10 upgrade as a recommended, virtually mandatory, update very soon”
Translation:
Microsoft isn’t going to “force” you to do anything, but this article is a complete waste of time unless we can lie and tell you (with weasel words just in case we get called on the lie) that they are going to make you. Just watch how many people leave logic at the door and completely believe this!
“virtually mandatory”? Swear these tech blogs just hire the first retard off the street that can plug in a USB mouse to write this stuff.
I think some number of people with Automatic Updates turned on should have seen, thanks to a hiccup from Microsoft, a prompt to install 10 appear every two days since that was triggered, if they accepted the “reservation.”
More will get that when Automatic Updates moves the reservation to the next level of install importance.
I'm not sure what you are getting at. Yes, Microsoft is badgering me constantly to upgrade to Windows 10. Every time I start the machine, and sometimes when it's running, I get these endless pop up windows URGING me to update to Windows 10, and I keep worrying that one day I might accidentally hit that button.
No, I don't want Windows 10. I don't even want Windows 7. (it sucks.) No, I don't need Microsoft "helping" me manage my usage or browsing, what I need Microsoft to do is to leave me the F*** alone apart from providing subsequently discovered vulnerability updates, so long as they don't compromise my privacy.
Yes, Microsoft has become as Fascist as Google. No doubt they look enviously on Google's Data mining operations and wonder how they can force people to give them some of that information goodness!
Well I don't give a flying flip about Microsoft's profits. I hate that company. Everything they do more or less sucks. I hate Google and Apple too, but for mostly different reasons.
I am seriously contemplating telling the whole lot to go to H3ll and switching to Linux. The one thing I am getting sick of in this age of resurgent fascism is other people trying to force me to do stuff that I don't want to do.
LOL!
Keep beating up against those rocks.
It still doesn’t erase your embarrassingly bad original post.
“Oooooh let me shame him! That will make my argument”!
