Will current Windows desktops be forcing us to "upgrade" to the screenshot surveillance nightmare? Or is it only new machines?

@_L1vY_ Mine's too old for Win11. But short answer I think up-to-date users will be forced to switch to Linux

@Nonya_Bidniss How old is too old? Mine is a 2015.

@_L1vY_ If you're running Win10 it should have already been annoyingly warning you if your computer can't be updated to Win11. If you're running Win10 you're safe from Copilot and associated bullshit.

Y'all, you can probably keep using Windows 10 for the foreseeable future. While Microsoft End-Of-Lifes it in 2025, all that means is that Windows Update will stop rebooting your PC against your will every two or three weeks.

So long as you keep a malware program installed (I like Malware Bytes Premium) and avoid opening phishing emails, you'll be fine.
