Apple is not there yet, but kind of drifting towards becoming the new windows.
- layer8 9mo agoWindows at least lets you disable any service you want.

Perhaps if macs let you configure Spotlight to ignore some directories you could tell it to ignore the entire disk? Which would disable it in practical terms.
