Default Microsoft updates Windows without users' consent

Sarcasm aside, I'm glad to see that for once you agree that the EULA
does so stipulate and that all users have given their consent. It's not
often you let facts get in the way of your rabid anti-Microsoft stance.


"Giving consent" in this context is nebulous. None of us reads every
EULA we see, we just click the "I agree" button.

And for an operating system's EULA, most people aren't even aware that
it exists. They open the box, setup their new computer, and turn it
on. They click any buttons they need to to get through the setup.
