Oh, sorry, I forgot the tag. Of course I'm fucking kidding. TFA says "According to this Reddit post, it seems what the device is doing is deleting unnecessary files from installed apps in an effort to free up the room you need to install the movie."
Yeap, just keeps deleting all those unnecessary files you have: music, photos, documents and such. After all, they're all backed up in the cloud, so why on Earth you'd keep them on your phone?
The average computer user should know better than installing things automatically. I think you mean auto-install security fixes is a reasonable default for 'computer literate' people a.k.a able to turn on the computer and click every ok/next they see.
I saw on the news the other day, that students were saying they had been traumatized by someone writing in chalk "Trump 2016". I mean, I'm no Trump supporter, but seriously, traumatized?
You don't get it, do you? They were not traumatized by the actual words but by the fact that a person who managed to get to college would vote for Trump.
The objective of a terrorist is to create fear and mass panic
What? Are you saying western governments are terrorists? They are doing their best to create fear and mass panic that the honest terrorists are thinking of letting them join the fight.
Damn right, bro! We should all buy devices built to last. That's why I have my trusty Motorola Xoom 3G running in top shape after all these years. Oh, wait, it runs Android (and Debian, from time to time). Whoopsy!
Now, that could result in a system where those with connections have greater freedom in their economic activity and thus more effective power in said cashless economy, but we already have this situation. Those with the right connections, get away with a lot of prohibited economic activity.
For all data collected there should be a stated purpose.
Becasue we want to do it.
Information collected by an individual cannot be disclosed to other organizations or individuals unless specifically authorized by law or by consent of the individual
You did read the 100+ pages EULA, right?
Records kept on an individual should be accurate and up to date
And that's why we're always traciing you.
There should be mechanisms for individuals to review data about them, to ensure accuracy. This may include periodic reporting
Nothe the 'should' and 'may' not the 'must' and 'will'. But hey, not everyone in US speaks English so we may get away with this.
Data should be deleted when it is no longer needed for the stated purpose
Again, 'should' not 'will'.
Transmission of personal information to locations where "equivalent" personal data protection cannot be assured is prohibited
But, your honour, their law said they care about data protection, it's not our fault they don't enforce it.
Some data is too sensitive to be collected, unless there are extreme circumstances (e.g., sexual orientation, religion)
We've seen it all, there's no need to be sensitive.

Kim, buddy, you've missed the target, just like your missile.
The purpose of military training exercises is not to "provoke" somebody, that is childish and silly.
Unless you're doing it in front of their house.
What? Bitch and moan about everything? Act like hurricanes (come wild and wet and leave with your house and car)?
Of course not!
Windows 10 with Tay the chatbot interface.
Yandex? As in Russian Google?
If you mean using a gmail address with outlook then you're right. Configuring gmail's POP3 in outlook is child's play.

Give the man a break, he's using Windows 10 with autocorrect enabled.

Dumbfuck.
It's your money UNTIL you make a deposit. After that the bank owes the money and lets you use them.

You think you're funny but that's the way we're heading. And not only with computers.
Just use some kind of adblocker and script blocker and the web will be fine, even on older hardware.
Let's see: round corners, mouse right click, the usual stuff the unwashed had for a long time.

And how's that different from a caste system?
Does your 2% back covers all the fees your bank imposes on you?

There's nothing wrong with Windows 10's UI. Not being used to something doesn't mean it's bad.
Except for the tiles. And the stupid corners. And the constant switch between classic interface and metro or whatever the name.
It's doable in Android. Root, install a firewall and DisableService (handy little program which disables services in apps).
Just wait a couple of years and you'll be forced to buy it.
You break it, you pay it will become you saw it, you buy it.
