You weren't supposed to bring that up. :-)
Dear Microsoft,
Your operating system is the only operating system that I know of that requires a heavyweight program running constantly, with escalated privileges, and for the sole purpose of preventing your own operating system from destroying itself. And/or any other instance of your operating system that it can find in the net neighborhood. I'm talking about things like Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, Avast, etc.
And for the past two decades you have done exactly nothing to mitigate this shitshow, except talk about user experience, write memos and publish whitepapers.
Oh, yeah, almost forgot. The Ribbon.
The day when Windows users won't be required to run an anti-virus program to prevent your operating system from becoming a festering Petri dish, we can start talking about C or C++. Until then, look inwards.
Funny how I don't have to run Avast or Malwarebytes on Linux.
