Can this retarded "durr botnet" meme please end?

There's literally NOTHING wrong with Windows 10.

Also the stupid "hurr it upgrades without your permission" thing. Everybody knows it doesn't and that's the dumbest anti-MS propaganda I've ever seen.

Actually mine crashes randomly. Frozen screen. This never happened on windows 7 or 8/8.1. I tried LTSB (which was missing the hyper-v administrators group, a known issue that is still not fixed for AGES now), and pro and home, all of them crash randomly.

Thanks microsoft, I switched back to 8.1 just for the hyper-v support. Once I get vt-d enabled hardware, I will just run linux and kvm/qemu for games.

There's proof that Windows 10 spies your computer, so can you provide new proof that it has stopped it at some point? Then it would be possible to end the meme.

too bad >>54724383 is all BS.

I opened every single one of those links in tabs and didn't find a single piece of actual evidence, just "oh there's some language in the ToS that might imply X" and "some data gets sent when you do X (but we have no idea what that data actually is)"

Find me a reputable source that:
Turns off the telemetry and privacy settings
Actually observes some of these packets, with those settings off
Opens the up or decodes them to show they actually include personal data.

The last part is the one no one has ever done, and will not do, because telemetry != personal information.
>>
>>54723955
I also read their entire privacy policy before upgrading. It's very same and straight forward. If you download the exclusively opt-in beta version with explicit telemetry, you will get telemetry. If you don't, you won't.

>b-but what if they lied!!
If the average /g/ user wasn't so retarded as to be incapable of checking their own network traffic, they'd be able to discover this in five seconds flat. Then give it another minute to setup the appropriate setting in the router firewall.

Is this bait?
I plugged my desktops boot SSD to my laptop so I can take it outside with me. Came back, plugged it back to my desktop, everything fine.
Except I was unable to use the Internet completely, because Windows 10 was downloading OS updates and drivers for THE OLD LAPTOP'S GPU. It had started the download in the background and didn't bother telling me shit. I turned off the Windows Update service altogether because there was not even an option to pause a download. Even after that it didn't stop using my Internet, I had to turn off something like smart file sender or some shit.
Other than that hey it's pretty good.
Older versions didn't have problems like these but hey that doesn't matter cause now we have new modern design!

It was eventually put to the right A/V channel, but I just find it so infuriating that people think they are knowledgable about an OS like W10, without ever actually trying it.

Well, you can't turn off auto updates.

You're shown (and this is a fact) a prompt that says "you have 15 minutes to close your shit before you update it". I get that there's a lot of bullshit propaganda against it but it does have some issues.

Nothing wrong is also highly subjective in the design department, it looks rushed to hell and back. Pretty ghetto.

I was in the middle of playing Dark Souls 3 a few nights ago when suddenly my computer started shutting down. I thought it was crashing because, I'll be honest, my computer isn't quite up to the specs for DS3. Nope, I ended up at the blue windows startup screen with "Installing Windows 10"

This is the first time I've pressed the power button to turn off my computer during an update or otherwise a time that it expressly told me not to do so.

My experience can't speak for all, but it has happened to me.
