“brick my computer on a whim”
Paranoid much?
It’s funny that you fear Microsoft but not all the people that can exploit all the flaws that are now left open in your computer because you haven’t received a single security update in 357 days (or more since the last three years were paid updates).

[Microsoft update system has destroyed my computer completely]
Odds that these computers were infected by something in the first place?
Pretty fucking high.
I support multiple computers at all times that are always running the latest Windows version, never had one where an update broke it and if it happened it’s a pretty major leap to go from “that update broke my computer” to “Microsoft intentionally bricked my computer”
It’s also completely ridiculous because you’re implying that the same situation couldn’t have happened with a Windows 7 update.
