Do NOT ever install or use Windows 10. Remove Apple and Microsoft and install a Libre GNU/Linux OS and/or TAILS OS.
>>

>unfortunately, cannot turn off botnet.

yes you can with ENTERPRISE version of win 10.

I don't have the link right now, but there's specific instruction on how to turn off botnet features when you install Win 10 ENTERPRISE on corporate computers or any corporate computers that need to be very secured.

There was never any botnet to begin with, that's just pure Linuxtard FUD. They learned it well from Microsoft.

Yes.

Even on consumer versions, if you turn off all the settings, you're not sharing any personal info. Though it'll still collect crash/error statistics so that devs can fix problems, just like many linux distros that have been doing for years before Windows ever did.

Botnet is a meme.

Without telemetry and error reports they won't have a way of developing updates and service packs. I don't understand this mentality, one side they complain about bugs in the system and the other side won't allow the developers to get the data to analyze the errors and crash reports.

How does this work?

Telemetry has been around since XP, it was simply not visible to the users and no one cared back then.

which can only be obtained via VLK subscription. also the ability to turn off spying isn't controllable via any machanism built into the OS (as evidenced by Pro version not responding to group policy setting despite gpedit being accessible) but is enabled/disabled remotely by MS.

I haven't really been follow anything regarding Win10 but why did Microsoft decide to go full botnet? You'd think that all the articles and people talking about how they are spying you would hurt their them a lot. What do they get out of it(does the us government pay them so well to do that)?

does it provide new drivers or fixes the ones already installed on your machine or what?

I was playing some games with friends last weekend and win10 users had more issues getting things to run than the win7 users.
It was old games though as new games do not have multiplayer.

wat
Also I play alot of games and have no problems on win7. I guess some really old ones could give some problems.

Without the botnet I find it quite good.

free upgrade -> people can't complain if it's free

also, it's a trojan horse to force people to paid Windows subscriptions when MS jumps the boat to Windows as a Service in the future.

pretty much. exactly how US government propped up google, so they could use search records, gmail & google voice as a channel for mass surveillance. google is pretty much the cia's unofficial electronic intelligence branch.

Just got one of these, was considering putting W10 on it.

Opinions?

How easy is it to switch back to 8 once I decide 10 is bad?

>>51416300
yes. windows 10 works much more faster on my old 2009 laptop than windows 7

Windows 10 feels like KDE4/5. Slow as fuck animations, everything feels bloated, slow, laggy, unresponsive. The difference is that with KDE you can at least customize it, the font rendering is not as bad as Windows 10 universal apps, and KDE doesn't have a botnet.
