No, that is why people turn to Linux (and *BSD to a much (, much) smaller extent) after having been thoroughly disgusted by these practices whether they come from Microsoft (Windows et al) or Apple or anyone else. It is the only "platform" where you can be really free from this type of behaviour. They first install it on the hardware previously used for Windows or Mac OS and quickly find out their old hardware could perform much better than it did when burdened by those marketing strategies disguised as operating systems. The next step comes when they buy new hardware on which they directly install some Linux distribution, usually keeping the factory-installed Windows or Mac OS around where it tends to languish. When they then decide to boot into those factory images they are immediately hit with the upgrade hammer which only increases their determination to stay away from those systems as much as possible. This is easier for those who used to run Windows than for those who need to use Mac OS to develop for one of the other Apple brands since these all mandate the use of Xcode [1] which needs Mac OS which "needs" [1] Apple hardware.

[1] as in "is only licenced for", there are ways out of this...
