The Windows 10 Home EULA now reads: 'You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized sources, and Microsoft may need to update your system to provide you with those updates. So, like it or lump it, if you're using Windows 10 Home, your system is going to be updated when Microsoft says it's time. In short, clueless Windows users are one of the biggest reasons why there's so much crap and trouble on the Internet. Look no further than how the obsolete Windows XP now powers a disproportionately large number of botnet attacks. Most botnets are powered by unprotected Windows systems and that, in turn, means all of us get attacked because clueless people won't update their systems. That, in turn, means that millions of PCs are pwned every day by malware using bugs that were patched ages ago. Why? Because year after year it's been shown that most users can't be trusted to keep their systems up to date. Anyone who's read most of my work knows I've disliked many of Microsoft's moves, but this one is a good one. That's great news, but many users hate Microsoft for this Big Brother approach. Automatic Windows 10 patching is a good idea. With Windows 10 Home, Microsoft is implementing automatic patching.

The Internet needs a warning sign that reads, 'You must be at least this smart to use the net.' Well, we'll never get that, but Microsoft has made one good step in that direction.

Windows 10 update every day
