The problem (with this post in HN) is that it _isn't_ actually automatic. Your device being receptive to automatically-shared networks is default-on/opt-out. Your device automatically _sharing_ a network is default-off/opt-in, as well as (I think) being on a per-network basis.

>if you give one Win10 friend the password, all his friends have it
Only if he opts _in_ to sharing it.

Alternatively, you could actually go look up and understand how this works and realize that 80% of this thread is misinformation.

I've always thought verb-noun made more sense (since functionality in powershell isn't bundled/accessed as a complete program it has that flexibility).
* Install-Package firefox
would be hugely preferable, though. Smart defaults are good things!

>only true for _PC_ desktops
What other kind of desktop is there? Chromebooks/laptops fall under the same category, but that still isn't nearly enough to justify your claim.

>virus/firewall updates
You're still using third-party software for that? There's part of your problem! Getting rid of those would also kill of the "suspicious behavior" popups.
