MS does seem to be migrating to an ad, marketing and data gathering platform instead of general purpose OS. All that pent up upgrade money waiting for a Win 7 replacement will have to continue waiting.
I don't know what IT departments opinions are of the spyware features in the OS. I'm sure they can find a way to configure it to their liking.
If they have the "enterprise" version they can disable the snooping features that people currently know about. Everyone else gets the MS knows best and knows all versions that make these decisions for you. But the Win 10 start menu is less horrible than the Win 8 journey down the rabbit hole.
The Logan's Run film also had a bit about the population served by "protein from the sea" which turned out to be frozen people. The 70s was a weird time.
depending on the type of volatile RAM, it doesn't always come up as all zeros at power-on either...
The original Apple ][ showed this after power up with a screen of random characters, requiring the user to hit the reset key to get things rolling. Fortunately, the reset key was placed conveniently next to the enter key... BEEP!
When Apple updated OS X to allow TRIM on non-Apple supplied SSDs, forums were flooded with people claiming you should never use Samsung because they were fundamentally broken with regards to TRIM. Their "proof" was that corruption happened on Linux and they would not be swayed by the thought that maybe the problem was with Linux.
IE is like the horror movie killer that keeps coming back after repeated stabbings, burnings and exorcisms. Call it Chuckie, Freddie or a Leprechaun, it will be back.
Bugging me to install the app and interrupting me for a survey or chat less than a second after visiting are all amazing ways to piss me off. I see most of this on sites where I'm already looking to be a customer. Don't interfere with me giving you business.

That is possible. You don't see any processing facilities, just storage. The important thing in that movie is Jennifer Agutter got naked repeatedly.

So, in other words, the user has to be a complete moron in order for this attack to work.
Human stupidity is the hacker's greatest tool. The entire staff does not have to be stupid, just a few to get things rolling.
Bill Lumbergh: So, Peter, what's happening? Aahh, now, are you going to go ahead and have those Windows updates for us this afternoon?
