If they offered me a 2016 Corolla in trade for a 2002 Corolla, I'd probably do it.

edit: If they had a recall/replacement on the car because it was unsafe for other drivers on the road, people would probably agree as well.

Key point being, "offered."

Microsoft is making an offer that most non-technical users can't refuse. That's not ethical. The ends don't justify the means.
