I think the opposite is true in fact, Windows 11 is really anti consumer by design (anti choice, anti privacy etc).

  I agree on the point that Win 11 is anti-consumer, but I think that's part of the overall trend to turn the computer into an appliance, i.e. not a device that you have to administer, but a handy tool as easy as your fridge or washing machine. Now if that takes away a bit of freedom and privacy, well, you can still opt out on any device that could run Windows 11, and use another OS instead. I'm wondering whether this won't be possible later down the line, though, given the trend.

    If a trend is morally questionable, no honorable entity would follow it. Furthermore, since Windows is so prevalent, you're gonna have an hard time using something else. Given you're neither tech savvy, or rich, which most people aren't. So no, there are no excuses for a company this large to have such malpractices, we're talking about a private company with more power than many small nations.

      Yep, I agree. The issue would be to discern between honourable and dishonourable (or shameless) entities, but there starts the domain of concessions to convenience, and PR.
