# Windows sucks
|
|
|
|
Windows is proprietary software so you don't have control over
|
|
it. Instead micr\*s\*ft has control over **YOU**
|
|
.
|
|
The following operating systems sucks:
|
|
|
|
* Windows 9x
|
|
* Windows 2000
|
|
* Windows xp
|
|
* Windows Vista
|
|
* Windows 7
|
|
* Windows 8/8.1
|
|
* Windows 10
|
|
|
|
Microsoft spies on you, puts ads on your system and charges you. Which
|
|
should be illegal. In fact spying on you should be illegal.
|
|
|
|
Windows comes with installed program you didn't even asked for. which
|
|
is true bloatware. More bloated than the Linux kernel.
|
|
|
|
Windows sucks for development, you don't have any equivalent to, for
|
|
example /usr/include and you have to install bash/cygwin to get a
|
|
"GNU/Linux feeling"
|
|
|
|
Microsoft really hates standards, their products used not to be
|
|
compatible with most standards. Internet Explorer for example. GNU
|
|
software doesn't follows the standards at 100%, but GNU software does
|
|
add something useful to the software instead of making it a pain in
|
|
the ass.

# Backdoors
|
|
|
|
Is not a mistery for anyone that Win10 is absolutely backdoored. A
|
|
example of this is that [Microsoft disk encryption is
|
|
backdoored.](https://theintercept.com/2015/12/28/recently-bought-a-windows-computer-microsoft-probably-has-your-encryption-key/)
|
|
Since it stores the unlocking password in **your** Microsoft account.
|
|
|
|
If you try to install another browser (Firefox the one which rhymes
|
|
with "Noodle Dome") [it begs you not
|
|
to](https://www.ghacks.net/2018/09/12/microsoft-intercepting-firefox-chrome-installation-on-windows-10/)
|

|
# Interference
|
|
|
|
Not allowing the user to install whatever he wants is very
|
|
shitty. It's my fucking computer!
|
|
|
|
Not to mention when Microsoft forced the users to install
|
|
Windows 10. Sometimes without users knowing.
|
|
|
|
# Sabotage
|
|
|
|
[Windows update remove software
|
|
installed](http://www.ghacks.net/2015/11/24/beware-latest-windows-10-update-may-remove-programs-automatically/). For
|
|
example. If you upgrade windows, very likely the MBR will be
|
|
overwritten. So if you were dual-booting with GNU/Linux, prepare the
|
|
GRUB (or LILO) Fixer USB.
|
|
|
|
In Windows, a DRM files can be used to identify people using Tor.
|
|
The vulnerability only exists in Windows (Win-fags BTFO)
|
|
|
|
[Windows informs to the NSA about exploits before fixing
|
|
them](https://web.archive.org/web/20130622044225/http://blogs.computerworlduk.com/open-enterprise/2013/06/how-can-any-company-ever-trust-microsoft-again/index.htm)
|
|
|
|
Not to mention Windows upgrades without your consent. We already
|
|
talked about why automatically upgrades are bad:
|
|
|
|
* Remove useful features
|
|
* Add useless features
|
|
* Phones homes every time you open the software to check if upgrade is
|
|
available (This is the reason I think package managers are the best
|
|
thing that could ever happen to GNU/Linux. You upgrade if YOU
|
|
want. You can read the changelog before upgrading)
|
|
|
|
Conclusion: Don't trust proprietary software. Especially in sensitive
|
|
subjects. Such as privacy, encryption...
