We offer choices. But, we will continuously revert your choices whenever we can.

I disabled Cortana, windows updates itself so we re-enabled it for you.

I disabled Edge as my default browser, windows re-enables it for me... choices!

I disabled the stupid search online via Bing feature... guess fucking what! Re-enabled.

If Xbox ever gains majority market share your choices go out the window. What he should say is we offer the illusion of choices.

All of those plus the re-enabling of automatic restarts for updates are the reasons I dropped Windows for Linux. I couldn't be happier with the decision.
