The special sauce is probably WSUS, which allows them to control the update process for everyone and determine which updates they get and which they don't. Additionally, the WSUS channel for updates is behind Microsoft's normal updates, which allows for them to prevent problematic updates from reaching WSUS servers in the first place. Of course, home users get none of this.
I personally believe it is arrogance to say that non-technical users shouldn't be allowed to control their own PCs. And besides, a lot of users of PCs at home are technical. So I strenuously disagree with you.
- passivate 5y agoYour arguing against something I didn't say. You can disagree with me, but you can't put words in my mouth. I didn't say or imply "shouldn't be allowed" or anything similar.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 5y agoSince my comment was along the lines of "people should get a choice", if you did not intend to argue against that then one wonders what the point of your post was. I mean, look at your language: "MS taking over is really not a big deal". How am I supposed to have interpreted that?
