If course not, “everyone” refers to people, not things.

So what would you have them do instead?

This is my personal machine that I own, there is no reason for my operating system to “hide” options from me. If I want to never update my system or delete core operating files that’s my fucking problem to deal with.

You know what else windows hides from normal users? How to disable information tracking, ads, and this AI bullshit.

When you pull out “software I didn’t start for six months wants to update”

Did the software “want” to update or “force” an update? There’s a meaningful difference there and windows often doesn’t give you a choice or do anything else while it’s updating.

Which doesn’t make sense considering how shitty Apple products work once the next generation comes out.
