[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 98186, post: 1031292"] Microsoft can prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot with a few simple moves on Windows, but it won't because the outrage and outcry will be massive. I think Windows should be a yearly subscription and then each service should require an add-on subscription fee. If a user wants to use stuff - if they want that freedom and all the harms it causes - then they should have to pay for it. Otherwise Windows should be wholly default-deny - lock users out from modifying the system in most any way - for unmanaged home users. There should not be the existing mult-tier Windows model where unmanaged home users get stuck with hobbled enterprise hand-me-down protections while at the same time they are wholly unconstrained in what they can do. Change for the betterment of the entire world is always painful one way or another. People don't like it. They want freedom and convenience, without being held accountable for their actions and choices. [/QUOTE]
