All proprietary systems have been protecting the system from the user for a good while now. It's what they mean when they say "the system is more secure". It's not for your security, it's for securing their interests and their partners interests.

Microsoft’s primary customers have been businesses and government for decades. This includes PC OEMs. You usually have little to no relationship with them.

A company grows toward its customers like a plant grows toward light.
