In a few decades of failing updates you will know who is doing it, totally worth it right?
Given how Microsoft has been behaving all these years, who would want them to control every aspect of their personal life?
It is not about features. They simply can not be trusted.
What, they will set up a profitable business model around it making sure it is never extinguished so that they can sell subscriptions forever, and ocassionally coming up with a new strain of cancer when business gets slow?
I can totally see Microsoft doing just that...
Nonsense, the security issues were there for years since Sun didn't bother to fix them.
What Oracle did is open that can of worms and start squishing them, which was the right thing to do.
Good work you greedy corporate sharks:)
Reliability costs money, unreliability costs customers.
Whoever came up with the idea of firing the whole Microsoft testing division deserves to be lynched by a pitchfork wielding mob of angry paying customers...
The US has a ban on spying on its own citizens without a warrant which it tries - however imperfectly, in numerous regards - to enforce. For people outside the US's territory, it's open season.
No. They found a legal loophole around that, using UK as a proxy.
They just want to build universal censorship infrastructure, have someone else pay for it, and suppress any opposition/critique by presenting a strawman purpose that is impossible to disagree with. Think of the children!

Rest of americans is so foreign to the ruling elite that they use NSA to spy on them

You are confused, why do you talk about Windows 10?

Corporations can not "create", it is done by people who work for the corporation, so corporations should not be able to hold copyright.

( for the sarcastically challenged: the above are not a recipe for creating a sound economy, just so that we are clear)
