Microsoft has lately been updating several files on all Vista and XP systems. That much is nothing new- but they're doing it without asking users whether they actually want the updates or not. Not bothered yet? These updates are hidden; there was never any notification when they were installed. Still not bothered? Here's the best part: Microsoft can do this even if you've disabled Windows Update completely via the Control Panel.
I don't doubt that some of you are going to not care, or not understand why this would bother anybody. To those people: yes, I know Microsoft is not out to take over the world. No, I do not believe that Microsoft intends to steal all the data on my PC. Don't even bother posting; this thread is not meant for you. It's meant for the people who actually give a shit about who may or may not make changes to their systems.
The thought that anybody other than me has the ability to decide what happens on my computer does not make me happy. I don't care if MS only means to change a few files that make some small and necessary alteration; I want and expect that they should tell me about it and ask my permission before doing it. Anything less than that is not acceptable under any circumstances.
Here's the link.
"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine
Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
