You agree to have your 'free' operating system remotely controlled by Microsoft, but ask non-Microsoft people to debug your system?

Please understand that Win 10 comes with some costs you obviously didn't realize at first. MS is switching from selling windows to supporting windows.

You bought Win 7 and are able to use it forever. No more money in it for MS. Some gifted folks are able to provide support for free. Some sort of socialism online.

You've got Win 10 for free - but they are able to bug your system every so often and ask you for some compensation, for their support in debugging your installation.
A constant money flow with granted growing profit totally under control of MS.

You are the product now, you make their money. And you donate all your data - you don't even know what data - to MS. They will use it/sell it to interested entities to rule you.

Whoever knows you - your dreams and fears, your interests and aversions, your political beliefs, your sexual orientation, your financial capabilities... is able to provide you with the information seemingly most apropriate in their interest.

Advertising is only one form of information - to be shown to you, or to be hidden from you.

Who controls your screens controls your perception, your reality, your motivation - controls you!

Edit: found a missing 'p' in the ocean of spelling errors. Please moor at the proper position.
