you can just pause updates indefinitely. besides, my point stands still that microsoft has never released a remote kill update. no indication that they'll do it now.

You can't pause updates infinitely. The updates will restart and then force an install.

Microsoft has never had an opportunity to force people to upgrade, DOS didn't get updates. Up until Windows XP updates were something that for most people didn't happen outside of a service pack. Windows 7 had a surprise upgrade shoved out for it. Windows 10 is the first version of Windows that doesn't let you not upgrade. Someone in Microsoft will get the idea that they can just make people upgrade.

you can.

besides, correlation doesn't mean causation.

"oh, microsoft has forced updates, next they're gonna have remote kill to force upgrade rrreee".

yeah, right. sounds like a recipe for a lawsuit. microsoft just stop updating windows 10 in 2025 for consumer anyway. if you don't want to upgrade then don't, there's others who're willing. but no need to make a bogus statement.
