Again, read the EULA. Microsoft isn’t responsible for that, per their own license. And I’m sure your ISP’s contracts have something similar.

The EULa will mean nothing after some class action lawyers dissect it and file a lawsuit claiming RICO and Sherman Antitrust violations in addition deceptive trade practices.

“Again, read the EULA”

The EULA is not absolute. Like contracts for phone or cable service, they are rarely upheld in court because the court is biased in favor of the consumer.

Nevertheless, the burden would be on the consumer to show that some damage was done, as in a bunch of your other software was not compatible w/10 and it cost you something to fix it.

AGs watch civil court cases. If they see a bunch of cases opened against a company, they start doing their own investigation to try and figure out what’s going on.
