They do updates for pretty long and a lot of the OS you can trick into updating far longer. Windows 10 LTSC IOT for example is going to get security updates for a looong time and has all the bloatware and spyware stripped out.

"You can trick into updating for far longer" is supposed to be an argument that it isn't planned obsolescence? > Windows 10 LTSC IOT for example is going to get security updates for a looong time and has all the bloatware and spyware stripped out. Because there is a market segment which is less tolerant of this kind of abuse. But when John goes to the store to buy a new laptop because the one he had with Windows XP on it is too slow to run any variant of Windows 10, that edition generally isn't what it comes with. Why not? Is there a customer desire for spyware and shorter support lifetimes, or is there an abuse of naive customers going on here by default?
