Microsoft and Windows 10 unbound rights

When Microsoft announced that the 10 θα κυκλοφορήσουν σαν δωρεάν αναβάθμιση για ένα χρόνο, ακολούθησε πανζουρλισμός! Ακούστηκαν διάφορα, από χρήστες των Windows που μέσα στη παράνοια αρνιόταν να πιστέψουν την αναπάντεχη δήλωση. Έτσι συναντήσαμε σχόλια που παρουσίαζαν την προσφορά, σαν μια προσπάθεια της s to trick people into installing the operating system and then start asking for subscriptions. microsoft sucks

The "drama" could have been avoided with a simple clarification, but it took several months for Microsoft to issue a statement clarifying the matter.

To this day, there are comments stating that Windows 10 is not really free and that users will have to pay for the operating system. after the first year.

We will agree that it is not free because Microsoft collects everything from every PC running Windows 10.

But let's look at the next big news that seems to be breaking into Media. The Microsoft Licensing Agreement for the new operating system (EULA) has acquired new terms. One of them states that Microsoft reserves the right to block counterfeit (pirate) games and to disable unauthorized material.

The new EULA became viral and many websites reported that Microsoft had added a Killswitch to Windows 10, which allows the company to block pirated games on systems running the new operating system.

Of course, all of this misunderstanding would not exist if Microsoft made a simple statement that clarified the issue.

But let's look at a third case, which appeared recently: Microsoft released the third cumulative update of Windows 10. Unlike before, the company does not reveal in detail the changes brought by αλλά το προσπερνάει με ένα διφορούμενο "Αυτή η ενημερωμένη έκδοση περιλαμβάνει βελτιώσεις για την ενίσχυση της λειτουργικότητας των Windows 10."

The Register reportedly sought to find out more about this issue, and the response it received from Microsoft was as follows: no related KB articles will be published for all updates that will be delivered with the company's new Windows operating system distribution practice as a service.

The answer, of course, does not reassure privacy concerns as well as business customers, especially if one thinks that one of these updates can break up a company's systems. Let's mention once again the incredible hunger of Windows 10 for telemetry data.

Hiding the content will bring more criticism to Microsoft, which does not seem to understand that what it says or does not say, should be analyzed in detail.

The company has many times given rights to all the "paranoia" heard and written. And there are some who look for the most negative interpretation.

The "I like not to say much" effect lets the negative comments spread and the company doesn't seem to care that much.

Do you really wonder how could a company aim to make Windows 10 available to one billion unbundled devices? Why, of course, he has the right to make them available, but the rights also have obligations.

So any kind of criticism justified or not should be spelled out in press releases or in publications in a forum, because all of the above creates offenses.

Freeware could be a honeypot for telemetry data. Somewhere here we have to mention that Linux is also free, with open code that does not hide what developers write.

So if Microsoft wants to continue to have the distribution right, it probably has to meet the obligations it has towards the end user. Because as can be seen from all of the above, except that the company seems to have communication, has reversed the right-obligation in its favor.
We have an obligation to provide our data to Microsoft and we have no right to know!

I personally do not bake me with a new Start Menu.
