but for right now I don't see the need.

All BS aside = no need to = they've already "implanted" what they need so far to keep tracking you anyway.

In fact, I have had my HP6550b laptop, [auto upgrades turned off for years = to ask me first, never did] installed with Win7 and now it has Win10 crap on it "magically"

All this lie about AI is so that little by little all add-ons [any software that passes the test of time] get simply installed on new chips =

They will 'kill your PC' when they are done with you, or you die = whichever comes first

Im still running Win7 and a subscription security package.

Can you imagine if the auto industry crippled, killed products when a new one came out?
