It doesn't matter how much effort it is, though. It's unacceptable that one has to do it at all. I paid for Windows 10, I should get an experience that prioritizes my needs (or at least the needs of users generally). Not one which prioritizes Microsoft corporate profits.

I don't disagree at all. The (out of the box) cacophony of internet content jammed into every nook and cranny does my head in completely.

I care much more about that than the telemetry stuff, but I completely appreciate that others care equally or more about the latter.

Once the crap is gone, the experience is awesome. It's such a shame they have to push it this way. I'd bloody pay extra for a lean edition.
