Comment on What's so bad about Windows 11? Help me understandparent

Comments

Ehh, secure boot enforcement, Microsoft account enforcement, shitty OneDrive integration?

Microsoft cannot be trusted as a provider for data. I use it on my work machine but here I am authenticated by a locally hosted domain controller. Private installs are a privacy and security nightmare.

I just like the utility of being able to swap hard drives to other machines and I have no evil maid anyway.

In many instances Windows says you system is too old if your system uses MBR/Bios for booting. TPM2.0 is old for that matter. It is just not detectable depending on your boot configuration (which is a good thing in my opinion).

Criticisms of telemetry and promotion of tools that supposedly disable it aren't new

Yes, well, it does get a lot, lot worse if this telemetry is connected through an account.
