>>In the name of security and convenience your computer will be less and less your own. In whatever they name it, the obvious attitude of these tech giants has nearly always been that it is not MY/OUR computer, but THEIR COMPUTER. Just the attitude that they could reboot anytime to force an update, nevermind what was happening at the time, whether we were in a critical presentation or other situation. It seems it took a Windows computer literally rebooting in the midst of a surgery and endangering the patient's life to start "allowing" us plebs to partially postpone and schedule updates. (And yes, I get it that there are millions of DEUs out there who will fail to update in a timely fashion and endanger us all by being ignorant botnet hosts. That does NOT mean that the first response should be to stomp on everyone) Toxic attitude.
