Windows 10

Personally, I have nothing against Windows 10.  It seems to be working out quite well for some.  Others are complaining about privacy issues.  In my case, I don’t need to upgrade from Windows 7 as it works very well for me.  I don’t need to upgrade to Windows 10.  The only serious objection I have is that I find it quite presumptuous of Microsoft for placing that little Windows 10 Icon in the bottom right taskbar of my computer without my permission.  And worse, allow its ad to pop up when I log in, WITHOUT the option to turn it off.  There is a matter of principle involved here which to me is the equivalent of malware and spam.
