I agree. Why should the person who bought a computer be allowed to own it? Phone ecosystems got this the right way - the company that made the device owns it, and the person who bought it does not!
Don't speak in empty slogans, connect it to the article/comment!
Some app does some thing, then the OS reverts it! Where is "you" and "own" in this process? Do you own the "C:\Windows\SYSBCKUP" folder? Do you own the undo process?
Would your "ownership" rights increase if instead the OS didn't waste any space, but simply blocked downgrades of system components without user warning/intervention? Or had an even better process?
