Windows 10 was spooky enough that I held on to Windows 7 as my work operating system until 2020. The constant telemetry, settings that would switch themselves back on a reboot without any indication, forced updates with forced reboots that followed, and Cortana intermixing your file system with web results were all giant pier spanning red flags that told me Microsoft had turned fully hostile instead of just adversarial. The main thing to remember is that everything I just listed was there from the start in June of 2015. Then Microsoft stopped trying to be Wilson Fisk with Windows 11 and just came out as Kingpin.
