Never I've been so angry at microsoft before.
I just got a laptop and the amount of shit they throw at you is astronomically incredible.
Hey look! Mode S! You can't install ANYTHING that isn't microsoft! you must connect to our service so you can remove it and we can add more stuff behind lol!
BUT WAIT! in order to connect, you must give us your phone number in order to know if it's really you! Now that you don't have mode S anymore, HERE'S MORE SHIT!
What? You don't want skype, netflix, maps, solitaire, office, xbox, xbox live, edge, bloc notes, McAfee and dropbox? WELL SCREW YOU!
oh, and more ads in your registered phone to top it all off.

Yeah the ads and marketing in general is complete garbage nowadays.
However I have Windows and I never had to deal with any of this. I don't have these sneaky software. I purchased the BOX license though, separately. Preinstalled OEM's tend to be filled with garbage and actually I'm not sure who exactly is to blame for plugging crap in the preinstalled systems - microsoft, retailer or the manufacturers of the particular devices.
Anyway holy balls, I'm sick of this entire marketing as well. Whenever you want to do/buy something, you have to be careful and read crappy walls of text to make sure you're not signing up for some sneaky utter crap. The way it all functions now sometimes makes we want to blow up few companies.
