Yeah, anyone using modern phone and refusing to use windows 10 "because some foreign country will spy on me" is stupid.
and after all. What stuff theres to spy about you? I doubt you are developing nuclear weapons or planning to invade a country.

Why be offensive, well yes of course they probably do, you have your point, I kind of missed that in my PC-frustration-spiral.
Guess they wouldn't do something they wouldn't be able to do without it. Could be a cost lowering feature.

On the other note I wasted like 8 hours now trying to fix this shit and I only managed to download a few updates.

Now I was trying to restore the autoupdate but that doesn't seem to work either.

Now they do it just took some patience, damn man. xD

Just because Google spies on you doesn't make it alright for Microsoft to do it, though. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Furthermore, you speak as if "being spied upon" is a purely boolean thing; because your phone spies on you it "doesn't matter" if your computer also does it, which is not true. The more tracks you leave, the more traceable you are, and vice versa. Minimizing one's exposure is meaningful even if it's not "complete".

Great, then there should be no reason to spy, either.

If you've got nothing to hide, then why do you care?
That's like the shittiest argument.

You can't take long enough when it comes to avoiding windows 10.


If you're computer is running 8.x, 10 is a better system. Problem is 7 only has a couple years of life left. Otherwise it's a solid OS, if not as detailed as *nix.

If the privacy issues are the complaint, look at the Android, iOS, and other device's EULA and TOS.

Sometimes it's just easier to reinstall Windows. Even with a fresh install Windows Update can take forever... well, several hours, anyway.

Completely off topic, but damn I could say a ton on this. I completely agree. I don't feel like rewriting essays that are already posted elsewhere on the Internet, though. I'll just say that searching for "Privacy Rights" is a good place to start, and the more everyone else knows about something, the less secure it is... namely your personal life, credit history, and worse. Just remember that impersonations are a real thing, and not a comedic trick of satire.

I like the Snowden quote about this:
This is like saying that you don't care about free speech since you have nothing to say.

Who has said that they spy on you?
They are collecting users feedback, logs and statistics to improve their stuff. And people are thinking its somekind of conspiracy where government is spying on them.
And if you really think they are spying on you looking at weird stuff in internet. Then dont complain to them. Go and use some other software. There's plenty of options available alternative to windows.

When a human searches for patterns in the world they'll called him a conspicary theorist and treat him like a nutter - if a machine is doing it they call it artificial intelligence and dream of control, power and profit.
