Disable windows automatic updates function. Then do a quick google search how to get rid of the w10 automatic upgrade.
1. upgrade to gentoo
2. upgrade to other linux
3. upgrade to bsd based
4. upgrade to windows 10
all these options are better than this 7 piece of shit
>>54193269
never10 is nice, it's like 8k and it all it does is set the correct registry entries for windows update to fuck off, then deletes the pre-seeded data
I haven't updated my windows 8.1 in months
how do I update it while making sure it wont just install 10 by itself?
Call BillyG personally
Or tell NSA to fuck off by typing it in a google search they are monitoring
I still have my legit Windows 7 install key, and I think I still have the disk lying around here somewhere. If it forces the update, can I revert back with the disk?

What is exactly wrong with windows 10. How would collecting my data negatively affect me in any way
>>54193509
Because one might find it natural to expect that the setting "download but don't update" will download updates without applying them. Of course, one would be dead wrong to make that assumption.

Why do you lock your door at night?
Why keep money in a card?
Why do you live in a house?
Use a hardware firewall to block microsoft's servers
>>54193673
Windows 10 handles updates (and probably data collection) via p2p when the servers can't be reached directly. This won't work. The only option is to run windows 10 only virtualized and only in a network-free container.
>>54193672
>Why do you lock your door at night?

>Why keep money in a card?

Then don't use windows 10.
>>54193619
Why download updates if you're not going to apply them?

>>54193754
So that you can vet them before applying them, fucking inbred.
>>54193198

They're profiting from you but not giving you any of the money. If you had a Honus Wagner baseball card, and I bought it off you for all the change in my wallet when in reality it's worth millions, would you be angry? What about if I stole it from you but left a current baseball card in its place? That would be an upgrade, but surely it's not acceptable for me to force the upgrade on you, especially when it effectively means you lose a valuable asset which I then gain.

Uninstall these updates!

it's not that bad. it's literally 7 with better shit. you can turn off most of the 'telemetry' crap either way if that is your problem.
>>54193175
For now.
>>54194048
It's best to install enterprise because you can use group policies to turn every intrusive shit completely off with ease.
just fucking uninstall the 3035583 update you dingus. this shit isnt hard.
you can also just delete the hidden folder in C: that it downloaded to, and also set the registry keys that are plainly documented to prevent it from happening.

During the upgrade it backs up your previous system state. You can roll it back from within Windows 10.
I'm a Linux user, so I don't care too much... but I had to make a windows VM, and I used a pirated version of win7 enterprise. it's really easy..

This has been mainstream news for 2 months. Me posting it on /pol/, /v/, and /g/ does not equivocate a blog post. It's letting people know what's coming, and it led to threads hit the bump limit in all three boards, and then spawned continuation threads.
At this point, if you haven't disabled the Windows 10 upgrade, then the consequences of that are on you.

Someone at work thought they would be cute and do that.
They give you 4 days to schedule it once it's download.
If you wait more than 4 days, things get kind of odd. Like if he were to download it today, and wait until the 30th to schedule his installation, the latest date he could schedule would still be the 28th.

>>54196454
Nope.
I work for a city, and we have a single IT guy. One of my coworkers upgraded without the IT guy's permission.
The button to finish/schedule the upgrade was up for several months, and you can't minimize/close that window.
I could have undone it, but the IT guy has made it clear that "If [anon] do my job, the problem will be resolved," to my bosses.

He's not overwhelmed. He doesn't do shit, and when he does, he's pretty fucking bad at anything off the beaten trail.
Dude tried for 4 hours to get a program to work for our power plant, and wound up giving up. I had no experience with the software, or the hardware that the computer was supposed to connect to, and had everything up and running in 20 minutes.
I did it because it needed to be done, and my bosses asked me to. I never meant to step on anyone's toes, but now the dude feels threatened.

Oh, and he recently upgraded the entire city to Fiber Optic, so that he could see everything that everyone is doing from the server, or so he says (I've never held an IT job, or had any formal training. I just know my way around computers and their software).

How do these people get jobs I wonder....
>>54196767
Politics. Dude started off as an EMT for the city, then became a Fire fighter. Went for Chief, and when he didn't get it, he walked out on the job. Then he brown nosed his way into IT, and got the city to pay for it. Then he applied for City manager, didn't get it, but got the city to begin paying for another degree to train him for it. He just got his first subordinate in IT, who is paid minimum wage, and does pretty much all the work while he sucks up to the new City manager all day long. New City Manager is doing a horrible job, so it's pretty obvious he just wants to know the job and get a recommendation when the City Manager leaves or retires.
He has plans to run for the State Senate in a few years.
How do I know all this? My wife is his niece.
>>54196789
Oh, and he's also the leader of all the Utilities (water, electric, trash and street department), despite never working a single day in his life. In the midst of a 3 year wage freeze, he was given a 20k/yr increase in his salary for taking on that position, on top of everything else he's doing. City Manager (the one he spends all day brown nosing) pushed the City Council into giving him the job and the raise.

And the reason I'm not running a newer Windows OS, is because it straight up refuses to install - it crashes a little after the install starts. I've tried Vista, 7 and 8.1, and the result was the same on each.
I've ran 7 before on this computer, when I had a dedicated ATI gpu, and it ran really good, so..why?
Why would a slightly weaker gpu cause those crashes?
>>54197091
Why look though the trash and find a pc 10x as good as your current one and just install a newer OS on it?
I just went into the windows updates folder and manually deleted the update responsible for that annoying popup/download.
Now I don't see anything about windows 10. Is it still in the backround somewhere? I legit removed that update and set all windows updates to be manually approved by me.
>>54197119
Nobody throws away computers like that here, and used computers with similar specs to mine are still kinda expensive (so buying an even more powerful one is out of the question).
I'm saving up money right now, but I have no idea what to buy.
I'm ESL by the way, sorry for writing weirdly.
>>54197164
Damn Im sorry. Where are you from? In the US we throw machines away that are far newer than that all the time. At my last job we literally sent a box truck full of old workstations and servers to a recycling place. Got myself a dell t3500 with a quadro video card, 12gb of ram, and some xeon cpu for free. I upgraded the ram and put a 4 port nic in it and made it into a home server. If you were local I would literally give you a machine to use.

How the fuck are you faggots still falling for this SHIT? There is an open source, regularly updated script to block all win7 and win8 telemetry, Uninstall every update that does that and is related to Windows 10 (and hides them from the list of updates too, so even a retard can't fuck up).

If anything, Windows 10 is totalitarian communist. It is completely free for most windows users, and runs and tells the state anything and everything that you do.
For it to be libertarian, it would need to respect your right to privacy, which it most certainly does not.

Wtf is that shit? Do you really believe that libertarians are in charge? Thankfully, they aren't. Otherwise, resources would be quickly depleted, crucial ecosystems would be destroyed and global warming would result in extreme climates, which would result in the spread of severe infectious diseases, falling agricultural output, etc.
Under enough years of libertarian rule, the modern civilization would fall and we would resort back to primitivism.

Nope. Libertarians allow for private property to be more important than privacy, as long as you consented for the privacy to be taken away when you use that property.

Why my 7 never got this notice update?
I've been using it for almost 8 years without reinstall and I don't remember ever tempering the update or firewall option.

Not true. Libertarians insist on informed consent. And MS doesn't, given its absurdly long terms and conditions written in legalese that a credit card company would be proud of.
Communism, on the other hand, doesn't give a shit about consent, informed or no, kind of like how M$ is pretty much willingly becoming a dog of the state in order to survive. Just because the dog doesn't have a leash around its neck doesn't mean that it doesn't have an owner.
At best, you could argue that its corporatist, which is anything but libertarian.
>>54199646
>>54199718
>Not true. Libertarians insist on informed consent. And MS doesn't
But you are consenting to all of the surveillance bullshit when you install Microsoft products, or when you use proprietary software/platforms.
A non-consensual choice is when you have no option to legally choose an alternative. Here, you can clearly chose an alternative. Use GNU/Linux software and OS, and replace the BIOS firmware you have with Libreboot.
>>54199796
Once again, you seem to have missed the INFORMED part of "informed consent."
Having it download an OS UPGRADE as though it is a security update to your current OS, and then popping up a bubble that doesn't give you a clear way to opt out of the upgrade (there's no, "I don't want to upgrade" button) isn't what I would consider to be INFORMED consent.
Then their terms and conditions relies on you not reading/understanding it, because it is very long, and very complex.
Take a look at OP. Does he look like he gave his INFORMED consent?
Again, you can call it socialist. You can call it corporatist. I'm sure there are other things you can call it, as well. But it most certainly isn't libertarian.
>>54199576

>a private company operating in a largely poorly regulated capitalist economy with a small (compared to Europe) public sector
This has to be some kind of a joke, right? And socialism is an economic system. It has nothing to do with a private corporation (Microsoft) creating shit products (Windows 10).
>informed consent
>then their terms and conditions relies on you not reading/understanding it, because it is very long, and very complex.
But this is what informed consent is. No one is fucking forcing you to install Windows at gunpoint or a threat of being arrested. If you don't understand the information provided in the contract, don't fucking install it! No one is forcing you.
Things like this shit happen, though, not because there's a lack of informed consent - there's clearly an informed consent. What is lacking is proper regulation of the private sector. The state should force Microsoft not to do such shit.
>inb4 muhh but free markets
Both markets and the public sector are indispensable for proper development of the society and technology. Most of the technology used by Apple, for example, was developed by the public sector - aka the state (touch screens, GPS + satellites and space launch, the Internet, wireless protocols, etc.). The state can create lots of innovation by investing into research and development, and it had already done so in the past. And this is clearly true, since we're here, browsing the Internet - invented largely by the state.

poo2loo
>>54193476
I did get the pop up for it, I was actually interested but it just never switched to "click here to actually upgrade to your free copy". I found out that the windows update for it was corrupt or something. After running it from the site it corrupted my update service all together, it refuses to connect to the windows servers now. Pretty much glad that it happened cause of shit like OP. Breaking the system by itself saved me a lot of trouble (MSE still updates fine just not anything windows system related, nothing of value was lost).
>>54199972
>The US is a poorly regulated capitalist economy
That's a joke, right? Spending as a percent of GDP is over 40%. In what way is that "capitalist?"
>But this is what informed consent is.
Informed consent is not downloading an OS upgrade as an update, giving you no clear option to opt out, and putting their terms and conditions in complex and confusing language.
An example of informed consent would be a notification telling you that you could upgrade your OS for free by going to [insert MS address], where, underneath the download link, there was a link to their terms and conditions, as well as their privacy policy, both of which would be clearly worded and easy to understand. Upon finishing the download of the upgrade, you would need to double click on the icon, which would launch an installer, which would tell you that this is an OS upgrade, and that if you install it, you will be subject to the terms and conditions of doing so (which would be listed again). Then, when you restart your computer (as opposed to M$ doing it FOR YOU), it would list the terms and conditions one more time (once again, in simple, easy to understand text), and say that if you do not agree, the OS upgrade will be cancelled, and you will be reverted back to your old OS.
Upon completing your upgrade, it will have an icon in the start menu for 30 days, titled, "How to roll back your OS," in the event you do not like the upgrade, or something no longer works.
I would not argue that somebody going through those steps would not have given their fully informed consent.
