Windows 10: An open letter to Microsoft on forced updates

STOP THEM!Every time I receive an unwanted and forced update to my computer, my settings are changed and my computer starts malfunctioning. The latest one is one of my monitors will stop displaying and I can't move my mouse or use my keyboard. This forces me to do a hard shutdown. I have wasted literal days of my life with Microsoft "support" to block the updates so I can download and install them when, or if, I want. Yet every time after I'm done with their horrid support I am promised that all automatic updates have been stopped, just to find out another one has downloaded and will automatic

Microsoft Sends Letter to Yahoo!

Hell, if Yahoo! doesn't want to be bought out by Microsoft then Microsoft shouldn't force them to be sold. The letter is total BS in my opinion. Microsoft, or any company no matter how powerful, should never say "We offered them a lot of money, but they didn't accept. wtf? We want to buy you now!"

If you want to buy some random person's McLaren SLR for $20,000 and he doesn't want to sell it then you have no deal. Don't try to force it.

I want Google to buy Yahoo! right now for half of what Microsoft offered just to piss Microsoft off and end this whole Yahoo! stuff.
