More than 10 years ago, I let a visitor use my PC. As self-appointed expert, he changed the setting and an avalanche of updates followed. The OS wasn't kosher and - you guessed it - this ended badly.

APPLE with its mean hardware policies and Microsoft with their intrusive practices. Google chooses when to clock access, too. While FACEBBOK is awaiting instructions from Big Brother on curtailing freedom of speech.

 

Bad times for users of tech.

...and the point of this post is?
