If it's your computer, you can just install an OS that doesn't do this. There are many alternatives.

Tell it to the bank that owns my mortgage. Many people, including me, have no choice but to run Windows.

You bought a house and now the bank demands you use Windows? What?

Assuming this is about "paying the bills" and using Windows at work; this is your employer/customer causing this issue for you by demanding Windows. Not Microsoft.
