Okay, so this is what the ‘forced upgrade’ was about, then? People being people and being incapable of reading?
On one hand, the distinction is reasonable enough. On the other hand Microsoft are abusing the knowledge that modern tech users generally read the absolute-minimum for anything they ever have to.
In this case I cannot feel sorry for users who simply closed-away the dialogues and notifications which they could have used to ensure they’d not have been subjected to the upgrade.
My uncle’s Window 7 desktop and Windows 8.1 laptop haven’t one upgraded (yet) and apparently not given pop-ups to the effect of in a very long while. That being said, my aunt is tech-literate enough to actually read things which look like they might be important before simply clicking on whatever makes the annoying little box which came up go away, so that probably explains a lot of that.
