It's disgusting how this exact idea is used to push users away from things they want, and no matter what they claim, you can't convince me this isn't part of how they design certain updates. When the customer has no choice but to update, the company has no reason to make the update appealing. They can actively make it all worse and worse and worse, while continuing to scare users into accepting it.
I'm tired of companies hiding behind "security" to mask anti-consumer shit, and I'm tired of the security community helping them shovel that shit while acting like the consumer is a fool for not wanting to eat it.
Yeah, go read a book or something.You have no idea what you are talking about.
Backporting security and bug fixes is a responsible and reasonable measure taken by any software that actually respects its users ESPECIALLY when a new breaking update is released. You failed at bullying a stranger with valid concerns. Try to bring reason with you next time before you decide to be rude and condescending.
