They will just enable it by default later when the heat passes. They always do. You no longer own Windows.

Never did. It's just more and more obvious with each new "feature" that it's built for monetization, not for user functionality.

In the '90s and early 2000s, Microsoft's business model was the classic one of selling products to customers. Today, it's all about the cloud, advertising, and AI, where the product is the user.

My prediction is essentially one day windows pcs will be Linux that act like thin clients that go to windows 365.
