Follow up on: Windows 10 'The Service' Is Big Brother Computer Takeover: "All I Wanna Be Is Everything" Says He; "World Is Ready" 8-7-15 "Windows 10. It's free to upgrade says Microsoft. Free? What about that old maxim that says "nothing's free". Definitely holds true in this case...This price is the cost represented by the total loss of control over your own computer. Taking control of software out of the hands of users has been a stated goal of the would-be global-population managers for a number of years now (see link @ post)...Probably the biggest change with the introduction of W10 is the concept of Windows now being a "service", ...With W10 redefining the operating system as a service, updates are now mandatory. Not only security updates, but also the very system features. Like it or not, whatever new thing comes out is getting downloaded and installed automatically on W10 systems. No 'off' button on this one. And this for "the life of the device" says Microsoft. In other words, as radically Big-Brother as W10 is here now right out of the box, what it might look like in one year, two years, five years...Well, the ZWO MS-branch already made the answer to that question known back in 2012 when Windows 8 was first released: "All I wanna be is everything..."

Microsoft won't let you switch off Cortana after the Windows 10 Anniversary Update
Deeper integration of Cortana in the upcoming OS update means the virtual assistant can't be switched off.
[excerpted] Windows 10 users will no longer be able to disable Cortana after the Anniversary Update, according to reports. Microsoft's virtual assistant is set to replace the standard search function in the upcoming software update, which rolls out on 2 August and is mandatory to Windows 10 Home customers.
Cortana...is set to become a key part of the user experience in the incoming update...able to save and recall important information and deliver notifications across all your Windows 10 devices, as well as being accessible from the lock screen.
Currently, Windows 10 users can disable Cortana from within the Settings menu, although this options appears to be no more in the Anniversary Update, according to PC World.
...there does appear to be ways that users can at least limit Cortana's awareness and prevent it being the all-knowing digital assistant that Microsoft envisions. For starters, you can make it deaf to the "Hey Cortana" voice prompt as well as stop it from chiming in with suggestions and notifications while you're working. You can do this from Cortana's settings windows. [but refuse it..oh no you won't]

Mandatory update leaving no right of refusal to "personal assistant" Cortana. Definitely a cause for concern for W10 users. Only one year out of the box and "Windows 10 the service" is now 'dictating' to users how it's going to be. Something of an omen is it not for future "service" updates in the coming years....
Have windows 10? Saying it that way does not seem to be an accurate way to look at it anymore. More like Windows 10 has you. Be very much aware. Rev. 18:4

| Cortana your 'buddy' - or Big Brother? Cortana wants to know everything. Disabling was possible in the beginning (see above image) but guess what only one year later... |
