Computer keeps spamming me with this.
Why are they so eager for people to have it?
Should it be installed?
>>51672082
Because they can get to retards like you that don't disable Windows updates so they can milk data from you.
>>51672115
I thought keeping windows updated was good?
>>51672130
You can still update Windows manually, moron.
>>51672082
You already bought into the 8 meme, what have you got to lose?
>>51672369
I have windows 7.. I think?
Hold on,
>runs dxdiag
Yes, Windows 7 home edition 64-bit
>not having the Windows Update service disabled after the spyware updates from this summer
You're playing with fire.
>>51672082
Did anyone get this before and then not get it after?
>put Windows 10 tray icon into the little tray box like pic
>Never get popups again
>>51672638
>Skype running outside of sandbox/VM
You're a madman.
>>51672082
>he installed kb3035583/windows 10 and telemetry-related updates
MS knows you better than your own family m7+1
DELETE GWX.EXE
>>51672469
kill yourself
>>51672671
Skype uses enough fucking memory as it is, even with ads forcibly disabled.
>>51673764
Probably not as well as google but who knows. What happens when MS and google walk down the corporate isle in lust for each others big data? Is that the end of privacy on the puter? What happens when you can no longer go full Luddite because the tech is entwined in every transaction?
What a horrible future looming.

>running windows on your host system, at all, ever
If I already have 8 is there any point in not getting 10?

>Using the official Sony CMA program and not superior open source QCMA
>>51672671
I haven't been on /g/ in a while
what's wrong with skype
>>51674407
it's Microsoft
>>51674410
well yeah obviously especially with how 8 and 10 are endorsing it
what specifically are they doing wrong aside from forced ads? botnet? phoning home? data collection? NSA?
>>51674407
It links a thumbprint of your identity to your computer's hardware and makes it readily available to government agencies

I've never heard of that, thanks for the tip anon. Does it have any benefits over the official software other than being OSS?

LEAs could easily get a subpeona for this
in fact it's happened already to various pedophiles and other criminals
>>51672082
Because it has electrolytes, like for your computer.
>>51673960
Is windows 7 bad?
>>51675638
It's what plants crave.
>>51672082
OP, I'm sure it's for your own good. Microsoft is just trying to help you. Why are you so ungrateful?
Now be a good shitizen, and do what you're told.
>>51672082
How can you "upgrade now" without downloading it first?
>>51672469
Windows 7 is the best of the windows atm. even though they're all spywared to shit now. It's time to try out some linux m8. Start with mint or sometihng on a live disk. glhf
>>51673960
You're a fucking worthless scab.

>getting spammed by your own computer
>can't stop it, it's embedded in the os
If it was any good, they wouldn't feel the need to spam you.
>>51678434
it downloads automatically without asking the user
it's basically malware
