Do you guys still remember when last year Microsoft changed nomenclatura without telling people, and ruled that after 25 years of opposite meaning clicking the tiny little X-box in the top right corner of a windows did no longer mean to close that window or to refuse something, but to deliberately accept it and agree to it?



One must be intentionally blind on both eyes to not see how malicious and underhanded Microsoft'S ways have become.

Of course, they always apologize afterwards, after having sacked another load of unwilling W7 user. Sometimes a bit late, with comfortable delays. But always apologizing before launching their next coup to overcome people'S rejeciton to W10.

Can such polite people who always apologize for their planned, intentional misdeeds, really be so evil?

BTW, after the US Senate today, the US Congress also have agreed to a bill that allows ISP providers to sell people'S data like email content, health (!) and financial (!!!) data, websites visited and browser history to the highest bidder. That goes far beyond what Google, Facebook et all already are doing.

My tip is clear: say goodbye to health apps and especially any form of internet-based shopping and banking transactions. When your financial data become a freely traded object in the web, then fun is over.

Its all becomig worse and worse. So much for "progress".
