Comment on Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission

Windows 10 was a free upgrade from 7/8. 7/8 was a free upgrade from XP. I mean, XP was installed on something, but I certainly haven't paid for windows in decades.

Apparently it's still a thing:

And if you think about it, why would I pay for windows, given it's loaded with spyware? I'm already paying to use it with my data. No different than using google software.
