The Register - How Microsoft copied malware techniques to make Get Windows 10 the world's PC pest "... The language of the counter-malware industry is more appropriate than the language of enterprise IT for GWX. GWX subverts a channel intended for one purpose (security hotfixes) for another (advertising); it changes its “attack vectors”, it “conceals itself” kinda like a rootkit; it uses “polymorphic” techniques; and it consistently overrides users' actions and permissions ..."

An aggrieved user venting out :-) :

There is a very interesting link in the comments to the article by Leonhard: Aegis for Windows 7/8.x ^ Scroll down to the list of malware, worth a look.

Mutinous computer virus alert: Warning: Windows 7 computers are being reported as automatically starting the Windows 10 upgrade without permission Epic comments:

There's now a SSD tool from Sandisk called 'Dashboard' that sports a manual TRIM option: Downloadable from here: http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/15108/~/sandisk-ssd-dashboard-support-information

A quick and dirty de-retardation experiment, for the skeuomorphic pleasure :

"... Dante passes through the gate of The Abomination Hell, which bears an inscription ending with the famous phrase 'Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate', most frequently translated as 'Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.'"

Admins beware: Domain-attached PCs are sprouting Get Windows 10 ads "Microsoft is telling users that their admins are somehow guilty of blocking upgrades to their PCs"

Malware alert: Windows patch KB 3139929: When a security update is not a security update "Microsoft buried a Get Windows 10 ad generator inside this month's Internet Explorer security patch for Windows 7 and 8.1"

Why? To what end? ... ... It's time for the separation before the divorce. It's been that time since last year, actually. ^ This. Come to this point it should be crystal clear, even for the most naive persons, that Microborg can not be trusted at all anymore and, as surreal as it sounds, has become the main threat to pre-abomination Windows systems (which they're hell bent to destroy, one way or the other).

Why PC games should never become universal 'apps'

... Trench Warfare ... IMHO it's more like a Fifth Column.

It's clear that those at the helm of Microborg think otherwise. They believe that they can rape the vast majority of the market with impunity, and that their victims will just bow down submissively and enjoy the ride.

Microsoft needs to stop forcing console-like restrictions on Windows Store PC games To quote admiral Ackbar the wise:

Fixed link: Why You Shouldn’t Buy Rise of the Tomb Raider (and Other PC Games) from the Windows Store Reapp the benefits of 'progress' : In the Reddit thread there's a healthy allusion to Richard Stallman's 2008 profecy:

Found this in my travels, sounds like it may ease the sufferings of poor Win X's victims : http://www.overclock.net/t/1592013/bytemedev-wolf-v0-3585-x86-x64-released-currently-looking-into-ways-of-permanently-addressing-windows-10-telemetry-privacy-concerns

Perhaps they know better than to risk a new mutiny by shoving malware down the pitcairners' throats ...

LUXURY!!! In my time all we had were Caesar ciphers.

An illustration of the progressive cretinization of all things Windows. "But grandmas don't know what to do with an address bar and will break the computer if they fiddle. So this is a very modern and highly advanced security feature." [/sARCASM]
