Microsoft again shows what it thinks of its customers: they are [censored]

The problem that I described on Wednesday continues apace: People all over the world who had set Win10 Creators Update to wait for “Current Branch for Business” before moving on to the next version are getting sandbagged. Windows Update is apparently turning a blind eye to the “CBB” setting. But, as explained on Wednesday, it does honor the “feature update deferral” setting.
No doubt somebody at Microsoft thinks that the setting can be ignored, now that the “CBB” terminology has been replaced with “Semi-Annual Channel.” Except, of course, the CBB terminology persists in Microsoft’s own documentation. Dirty pool.
There’s a new wrinkle. I have an unconfirmed report from Henk van Elburg that some folks with Win10 1607 set to wait for CBB are also getting upgraded to 1709. Without permission, of course.

So nice. So malicious. So entertaining. You certainly do not get bored with them.

Wait a minute Skybird! Aren't these the same red-faced apologetic guys who cried and promised never to install anything against our will ever, until the end of time?:har:

When you enforce yourself access to somebody else's property, without his consent, against his declared will and despite his clear signal and measurements he does not want you there, then this is a criminal offence, plain and simple. They are criminals, and their "aacidents2 and mishaps, so often happoening now, have method and obvious opportunistic intention.

For the best of mankind, of course: they mean it well.

Really.

Nobody would call somebody not a burglar who breaks open locked doors or throws in windows and crawl throug the chimney, and enters foreign people'S appartment without their permission.
