I'm so tired of clicking on posts like this expecting a civilized discussion on how things like this should be stopped, possibly regulated, and instead finding dozens of comments that read like they were written by Apple marketers.

I think there’s room to have this discussion while simultaneously applauding the one major computer company that avoids these problems.

I’m really not sure how you concluded that Apple is astroturfing here. Maybe I’m biased or blind but I think it’s this kind of company that really avoid this way of promotion. It’s also one of the tech giants. They don’t need to market to a site full of people that got a macbook from their employer to develop software on.

regulating how? The amount of bloatware? The responsiveness of the computer? The performance of the programs installed by default?
