Many people's only computer is locked to programs from a single source owned by the operating system developer, and adware impossible to remove without defating

Many people's only computer is locked to programs from a single source owned by the operating system developer, and adware impossible to remove without defating the device's security. Where downloading apps from another source is possible, multiple levels of popups are triggered with warning messages optimised through A/B testing to minimise clickthrough rates. Widewine and similar hardware DRM are now standard. General purpose computing is still alive, but it's taken serious hits.
