    How’s that OS spying on you and showing you ads thing going? Is that not a problem anymore?

      The ads you only see with a fresh install, which you can click away in less than a minute and never encounter them again in your life?

      The ads you can completely circumvent by installing the N version of the Windows OS of your choice?

      No, those are no problems what so ever.

        No, those are no problems what so ever.

        Love how you had to list all the exceptions and workarounds first in your reply, and then state there’s no problems.

        Denial is a powerful drug.

        I mean, if you want to continue having to deal with things like this, then more power to you.

        What ads? I do not see any ads on my windows 10

        You haven’t been keeping up with the news. They’ve already been prototyping and testing them.

        Also, from this article

        Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025.
