So many people were all too willing and ready to accept Winblows 10. Not everyone realized that their precious OS (operating system), had magically transformed itself into an operating service. So what’s the difference, you might ask?
Well the difference is; the ‘operating system’ was a tool for you to use, so that you could enhance your productivity, and secure your private digital information.
This, as opposed to the ‘operating service’ which transforms it’s users into tools, wherein they can pillage your, not-so-private information, and use that data in order to enhance their capital gains by selling it directly to advertisers, and or intelligence agencies.
You’ve got to hand it to them, it was a bold move. They probably did a cost benefit analysis way in advance and concluded that most of their users were not intelligent enough to boycott their new product based on privacy concerns, or would merely capitulate because they already did with similar cell phone operating services.
There was a big controversy, because of Microshaft Services agreement. At the time, many people who were wearing their thinking caps, had read the agreement, and rightfully perceived them to be in league with the antichrist. This while many other people said to themselves, I have nothing to hide and took advantage of the “free” operating system service.
I’m sure these folks who have nothing to hide, still close the door when they go to the restroom and continue to wear opaque clothing. In fact, until I see a trend in transparent clothing, you’re all just a bunch of god damned liars!
But you know what they say, and it’s mostly historically true. If the product is free, that means that you are the product! And so time marches forward, and in the rapeyist way possible, even after having been told no millions of times, Microshaft proceeded to forcibly thrust its Winblows 10 into as many hard drives as they could.
People gave up; they pressed upgrade, closed their eyes and just hoped it would be over with quickly. Little did they know that there would be forced update(rape)s to come in the future.
I know a victim of one of these forced update(rape)s who was severely traumatized, so much so that they went back to Winblows 8. Yet it was too little too late, as Winblows 8, and 7 too, had been updated with stalking (telemetry) software.
Fast forward billions of forced update(rape)s, and three years later. We find ourselves in a new situation. Congress has just passed a bill against sex trafficking, something that no one is going to argue against because sex trafficking is horrible.
Yet, in the bill was a Trojan horse. It facilitates online censorship, by making service providers responsible for the content that their users upload. This puts service providers in a precarious position where they now need to strictly monitor and police the activity of their users or else they might become liable for actions taken by their users.
It is no longer enough that the provider identify offending material, and simply eliminate it. Most service providers already do that, because it’s the right thing to do. Now they are in a position where they need to do this, before the content is even publically accessible. Meaning your data will be screened for offensive or illegal material, even prior to publishing it.
So what does this mean for Microshaft and its many services, like Wørd? Well if you create a Wørd document, you have the ability to share it online through the cloud. It’s all part of Microshaft’s many services.
If someone publishes a Wørd document that violates Microshaft’s code of conduct, then Microshaft has to remove access to the document, and to be on the safe side they’ll probably ban you from the service. This, is so that they will not be financially liable, for the ideas that you choose to share.
I’m hoping that someone like James Damore might put this to the test. He could publish his infamous memo to Microshaft’s cloud and invite a bunch of feminists to access, and read the link. Then all we have to do is wait and see if Microshaft will ban his access to their service.
If you have Winblows, I would encourage you to try and get flagged by Microshaft. Don't try and publish something that is illegal, rather try and publish something unpopular, but true.
Be politically incorrect, yet factually accurate. Below are a few ideas of what you could write about. Oh and if you are not in America, and your country has dumb laws that censor free speech, then you are doing this at your own risk.
A few ideas below:
Are men and women equal in their abilities? [Pondering Biological Reality.]
Is it not pedophilia, or homosexuality, when a Muslim does it? [Bacha bazi, Child Brides]
Is it hateful to not address someone by their preferred pronoun? [Gender Neutral Jedi Pimps]
How much wood, could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck identified as an Albino Rhino?
Are Jews still running Hollywood? [Magic Eight Ball: No Doubt]
Is it not prostitution when an actress does it to further her career? [Film industry pimpin.]
Now go out there, and get yourself flagged my Microshaft.
Don't forget to write about your experience!

I constantly write unpopular items. Never been blocked or banned by Microsoft. Their tools work.
Seems to me that you are barking up a fear tree on this. But, I will acknowledge that MS, like Google, and Apple, all love our data.
Life is simple. Keep your critical stuff offline. And when SHTF, then you are still fully functional.
Personally, after I put monitoring on my net traffic, I have found more strange transmissions to Google's services and tools, than I ever have from MS.
Even my net traffic dropped on my network as soon as I dropped Android.
If you want privacy, drop Google, Facebook, and all other cloud based tech, as you drop MS. And resume using printing presses and Typewriters.
If you want functionality, while mitigating liability, stop using "free". Again, dropping Google, FB, and the "Free" MS products.
As long as the old school MS cronies remain retired, then I believe that MS will remain less intrusive than Google and FB.
Nice, thanks for your feedback!
I agree with allot of what you said.
This post was inspired by this article , in the article it says that :
So if they start to do this, it will be because of the new legislation. Yet, in Microshaft's code of conduct, they also mention offensive material, which could mean offensive speech, which may mean. They'll be going full SJW in no time. I guess we'll find out sooner or later, how companies react to those bills, and what if any extra powers it gives them.
