I wouldn't be surprised if there's a conspiracy where Microsoft purposely left a massive hole in windows 10. And they are going to attack their own system in 2 months and be like "oh noez, welp guess you have to come to windows 11".
They don't care about forcing you to 11 other than it saves them development costs. All the ads and spyware are also in 10.
It's the same reason Linux distro's don't patch old kernels but force you to upgrade every 12 years.
But 11 has spyware at unseen levels with AI. They want you on 11 for your data. That's why they keep asking me to upgrade every week after I decline.
Linux isn't an evil corporation. That's not a fair comparison.
