First of all, has your own experience with Windows been so traumatic that you actually feel it’s proper to compare it to spousal abuse of all goddamn things?

Secondly, using emotionally manipulative false equivalences like that do nothing to further the argument, it just shuts it down by spreading feelings of guilt in the other partly.

Might not have been the best comparison as another commenter mentioned

Thirdly, people are allowed to ask for more privacy without evangelists like you crawling out of the woodwork to guilt-trip them into making a change they may not be ready for.

Sure, you can ask but you’re asking hammer to stop being a hammer. Modern Windows is not built to be private, but the opposite of it, it’s a marketing platform.
