Can't we, who were pulled into the scam of alpha testing this piece of crap, losing a valuable time data and resources, file a class action against Microshaft?
Even if some non-lawyers read the EUA, can any of them actually understand it?
How about a court order to stop the automatic update of suckers, errr customers who signed on for the "update" and have sucker's remorse?
Has anyone had the experience of being present when Microshaft attempted to push the update without the user's consent? Would removing power from the computer prevent the unrequested update?
That is exactly what the EULA is designed to preclude, but if enough users got behind a lawsuit, Microsoft might notice.
How about a court order to stop... sucker's remorse?

It would work, but it might fry the hard drive or SSD. (Personal experience.)
It is possible to avoid the constant promotions to upgrade to Windows 10, though Microsoft makes it difficult.
It is also now possible to use a trick that permits all Win 10 users to install updates at their own convenience, not Microsoft's:

The problem is that Microsoft requires the end user to jump through many hoops to accomplish these things. The user should never have been forced to do anything more than click radio buttons in a couple of pop-ups. "Do you want to upgrade to Windows 10 now?" Click "No" and the nagging should stop. "Do you want for Microsoft to install all updates automatically?" A "No" click should end the discussion.
Microsoft has, in effect, corrupted its own update/upgrade process. Until recently, Windows updates could be relied on to be good-faith efforts by Microsoft to benefit their users. Now, some updates and the Win 10 upgrade harm some users in order to benefit Microsoft.
Distinguishing good from bad updates requires time and a certain level of computer expertise. Some users will decide to stop installing updates altogether. Microsoft's heavy-handed efforts to increase Windows security will have accomplished the exact opposite.
Microsoft seems to be working hard to shred its own reputation.
