I think is weird that Microsoft uses security as a feature for customers who pay more.
I mean, security, if universal in their platform, would only give more prestige to the Windows brand, so why to let some of their users unprotected, specially when lack of security features, virus, etc.. have hurt so much the Windows brand?
They should give other kind of features and apps instead. Never negotiate security, and made it universal, giving more strength to their image.
Think of it, in the end you will be paying to be protected from the insecurity that is only there because of the flaws in their platform.
Its like a mob rising the crime levels on a neighborhood and at the same time asking to be payed to grant you security for the troubles people are only having because they are creating those same troubles in the first place (even if/when indirectly).
- runxel 6y agoSo much yes! I never understood why you would have to pay for security... "Oh look, our software is inherently insecure, but if you pay more, you can get a mitigation." It truly gives no good light on whatever you sell.
