Jesus christ answer the question at hand rather than preaching your love for richard stallmans dick

OP its important, serioulsy though if you don't update your OS will have holes in it, just go for the security updates

You're not entitled to a response. This question isn't even deserving of a thread.

SENPAI now you listen to me young man, you know we have many many many thread like this, we could all end it by answering the damn question with one post, but no. /g/ likes to drag things out and give stupid answers or drift around the corner, I will never know why, is it because its fun? or people are just plain bored or stupid?
>>
Why can't a massive company like Microsoft design an OS that doesn't need constant security patches? Why are they even allowed to sell Windows as a finished product when it's obviously incomplete? Fucking embarrassing, man.
>>
>>51953928
if your computer isn't connected to the Internet and you never plug thumbdrives into it, you're fine.

otherwise yes, it is really necessary to patch all the security vulnerabilities and also get a good (read: paid) antivirus.
>>
>>51953928
Security should be fine, the normal updates is sketchy

Give me your fucking shekels good goy

>Is this shit even necessary /g/?
Do you mean Windows? No it's not, there are other OSs that are actually decent.
>>
>>51954466
but what if MS included vuln patches in those updates?
>>
>>51954516
They didn't. You can read about what they're doing in their description.
>>
>>51954516
those updates are only wasting your resources collecting stuff like your personal info for microsoft. (and other companies microsoft wants to sell your personal info to, like ad companies. due to CISA which was recently ratified (today/yesterday?) it is legal without your consent to sell private information, files and so on that they have collected.)
>>
>>51953928

i always turn off all updates

nothing bad ever happens
>>
>>51953944
Throw it in the >>>/trash/ !!!

The Windows updates is becoming worse every passing day, now you even get Adware with it (GWX) and who knows what if you already use Windows 10 since there is no changelog with the updates.

Windows is technology and is more relevant and useful than lincucks.
