A few days ago, we had an article about Verizon and their "supercookies" they were injecting into the web pages of others.[1] They didn't do this for "enterprise and government" accounts. Now, Microsoft is pulling the same stunt. Enterprise customers don't get the forced upgrade, the "telemetry" backdoor, or forced ads. Only "consumers" get screwed.

You can't even buy a non-crap Windows as an individual any more.
