How do you use Google docs for phishing? Do they allow any customer to send phishing email originating from that domain? (I never use online apps, so I don't know what these services do or allow)
Anti-phishing, not the same thing. The article gives only one side of the issue, nothing from TieraNet.
I don't know how Zoho is or what they do, but if phishing emails are originating from their domain then they should be responsible for it and they can't blame it on their customers.
When you say that manufacturer's support Windows, that is true, but it goes a bit further. For instance, many USB devices will only work on Windows but mysteriously fail on other systems because those device don't follow standards.
Even for Windows shops they've moved everything to the cloud (because the masters at Microsoft told them to). Word, Excel, Sharepoint, Outlook, and all the "must have" Windows crap is now in the cloud. I was really worried after my company was acquired by a big Windows oriented company, but so far the Macs work great because all the Windows stuff is online.
Although a Mac has always worked reasonably well with Office. Unlike an earlier job where I had one Windows computer for email and Office apps and a second computer to do the actual work; crazy but that's why office chairs swivel.
Because Windows has historically sucked as a development environment. It has ever so slightly improved over time but it's still just a wannabe if you're not developing Windows applications.
Did you completely miss the period of time in which Windows was actively downloading advertisements and upgrading users computers to Windows 10 without permission?
Turning off general and important updates is a standard practice for many even though they keep security updates on. Anyone who treats updates as all-or-nothing needs to get more education. When Microsoft stooped to supplying advertisements in its "security" updates was the last straw for many,
Yep, never a good idea to create a Microsoft Account. Without an account you can't download free applications, so I would assume that no account means that it won't automatically download free applications. Without an account you can't even run some pre-installed applications (Mail) presumably because then they can't track you as easily.
Windows 10 Enterprise seems to only be available through Volume Licensing. I don't know exactlly what qualifies as Volume Licensing, but I'm pretty sure it's more than most small businesses.
Apparently Windows 10 Pro no longer means Professional. Pro users are also treated badly even though it's impossible to buy the Enterprise edition if you're not actually an enterprise.
The whole point behind the big changes in Windows 8 and 10 was to monetize the customers. Microsoft wanted a piece of the pie that they assumed Apple and Google were getting, only doing this on the PC rather than in content displaying devices.
Possibly, but there are a lot of technical oriented tools that only work on Windows. You may be able to find alternatives of course but it's a lot of extra work and the alternatives often aren't as good as the original. A lot of this comes from having Windows programmers be so numerous and inexpensive. Other times they just don't want to pay the cost of maintaining expensive software on more than one platform. These are a big driver of VM software so that you can use the tools even if on Mac or Linux.
For a good example, FPGA software for the popular vendors.
The definitions of AI have changed for as long as I can remember. "That's not really AI decision making, that's just an expert system." "That's not really AI image recognition, that's just image processing algorithms." "That's not really AI translation, it's just Google being very fast at searching and stitching."
All AI is are algorithms that we don't fully understand yet. The definition of AI keeps changing over time as we understand better how to do certain activities that we once assumed were extremely difficult or impractical to do with a computer.
Part of the problem is that they wanted to reduce the number of buses needed for everyone. If everyone's school day starts about the same then all the buses have to pick up all the kids at about the same time too.
Half my relatives are farmers, ranchers, or working in agriculture. I'm certainly not the only one here that knows farmers personally. Maybe you need to get outside the city more often.

And what the hell is Slack and why so many stories about it?

How does rule of law apply here, there were no legal or law enforcement groups involved?
I was dozing off too, but then I perked up when I heard that my rest home was having applesauce for lunch!
Shut up and do what dear leader Microsoft tells you!
They're releasing Office 2019 before it's actually 2019. This means, of course, that Office 2019 will be obsolete before the year 2019 is over.
Word 2016 can crash in only half the time it takes Word 97.
And I know the other guy.
To be fair, that goofy Windows 8 "metro" look actually works for a phone despite being gawdawful stupid for a PC.
Office 95 was the last decent version I think. I saw the slow decline start with Office 97.

But who plays Candy Crush on a laptop, and why?
I will trust Microsoft once they prove themselves to be trustworthy. So far I'm still waiting.

Well, if legislators stopped allowing lobbyists to write legislation for them, we wouldn't have this problem!
