Oh, lots of us care. It's just that the people who care the most arent using Windows much anymore. They are using linux. That choice, that freedom to install a competator OS, has empowered microsoft to do such things without fear of regulators.

Some of us who care have to use Windows at work. Instead of paying us more, our companies spend obscene sums on inferior software because that's what everyone else does.

If it weren't for work I'd ditch windows in no time. I dual boot so when done with work I run linux. Still wish windows wouldn't touch my system but for now I have no other option

I'm in that boat. Boss just told us to make sure our office 365 and teams accounts work from home. I emailed him back: "Then buy me a new computer because i dont got windows at home." In all likelyhood they will be issuing me a work laptop ... but now that i think about it, that is just another sale for microsoft. Evil is profitable.
