Got hit by Windows "The 5 Eyes Edition" did you?
Legal or not, it's a disgusting "practice" on every level.
And with the injecting of "special code" for EXEs built with the latest VS versions, it's nothing short of a travesty.
It's very obvious, Windows machines are no longer recommended to be hooked up to the net - and with Intel's hidden processor, there's money to be made on Faraday cages....
Windows will die a cruel death for these sh1t stunts....

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Kind of like how Visual Studio 2015 will change your Windows Update settings to 'Install Automatically' without asking you?
I got bit by that one recently. Installed VS2015, and a few hours later my PC is whining to be restarted so it can 'Finish installing Windows Updates'... Which it had silently installed in the background...
Fine, I said, restart the buggering thing... Then I realize it's installed GWX and have to spend time cleaning that mess up...
THANKS, MICROSOFT, I LOVE HAVING MY TIME WASTED!
So yeah. I feel your pain. Update rape is terrible.

No it isn't, but the nice ones provide options to disable them.

And to top this all off, Windows 10 is great. I know a lot of people have had issues upgrading but it's still worth it. Support for win7 ends this year, I believe.

Apparently sales end Halloween this year for Win 7.

My support for Mickeysoft is also growing a little short by now.

But what we would be left with without Microsoft? Linux?

Why not? If that's what it takes to get rid of them and their next grand plans.

Strange, I used to say that as well. Now I prefer it over being taken for a fool time and again.
