> Windows gotta update sometime

For some people, sure. But to force it upon people without any way of skipping it? Kind of disrespectful to control people's computer usage like that when we're talking about "personal computers".

People are idiots.

They will just continue to skip forever and never update then blame Microsoft when their machine gets pwned because it wasn't updated.

You're free of course to install another OS on your "personal computer".

Or, Microsoft could let people chose when to update, so the ones who have to use Windows (like myself) can continue to do so without having to deal with their continued bullshit.
