Original article at betanews.
Not going to link the full article but it touches certain subjects between Ubuntu and Windows 10. I would have been more interesting if it was on pure Debian or Arch or another major distribution but Ubuntu???
The UI (biased in my opinion since even within the linux community, desktop environment subject is never one fold)
The privacy settings (Yeah sure, way to go in the article comparing the privacy issues with windows 10 versus the one and only Ubuntu who caused an uproar on the community when they first released the privacy issues with Lens and Amazon, despite you can easily turn off)
Consistency: Nothing much to say here, in terms of the article aside from a big sense of fanboy alert
Non aggressive updates: One thing to note: Ubuntu 14.04 released an update to all Ubuntu families (initial 14.04.2) was all good and well if you were running a Unity for example, not for KDE... See this video for more information
Sure video above is not about forced upgrades, but you get the gist...
Security topic: Only one thing to touch:
Great, lets give a new user Linux and let him download everything and not configure properly and see how the system behaves...
Or lets have a driver upgrade first before touching kernel. Oh wait, should be the other way around... you get the idea...

Security topic: Only one thing to touch:
"With Windows 10, yeah, there is now an app store, but largely, users still have to hunt for programs and driver packages on various websites. While seasoned Windows experts will know safe download sites to target, many others will be fooled into downloading malware. Hopefully Windows Defender catches it, but if not, the users' machines can be put at risk."
