Perhaps not 2015 anymore... But most likely sometime after 2016 into 2017. I guess it depends on how much flack we can give MicroSoft to back down form its rather... How should we put this? Its rather poor decisions of late with regards to other Peoples Privacy. If Patch Tuesday... Or whichever way these Updates now fall... Is gonna start slowly turning into a Game of Wack the (Spyware), Mole. Then I'm gonna have to find a more sane OS to do business with.

It was up to a point only half jokingly commented upon that MicroSoft would backport all that wonderfull stuff... Sans DX12, and Cortana (a.k.a. TDSB), back into earlier builds. Well they've just gone on, and done it. Sans One Update that snuck past me back in May. I've managed to block all the offending material.... FOR NOW!

The only question is how much longer will I be able to hold my patients in regards to this? I had hoped that MicroSoft would have peacfully left us alone for awhile. That too seems like a pipedream.
