"First Step Towards Windows 10 in Security Updates?"

[kane_magus]

owsf2000's post, my comment.

Yet more Micro$hit bullfuckery regarding Windows 10. They're now trying to sneak that shit into the security updates for Windows 7 and 8, as well as in the "optional" shit.

(EDIT)

Here, have some Twitter embeds:

So the gist is that Micro$hit tacked on some more of that Win10 nagware bullshit into the cumulative "security" update for IE...

...and you can't *not* get the Win10 nagware (unless you just forego the IE "security" update entirely, which is what I opted to do, me).

I literally haven't used IE in over a decade now, so I hope it won't matter whether I keep it up to date or not.

In any case, this is some skeevy/scummy/scuzzbucket bullshit on the part of Microsoft, that's for damn sure, no matter how you look at it.

Even worse than the skeevy/scummy/scuzzbucket bullshit that they were *already* doing with regards to Win10 nag/malware.

The day Microsoft makes Win7 truly no longer viable to use anymore is the day I set sail on the good ship SS Linux and never look back.
