    If you don’t take 30 seconds to look up the bypass on install. If you’re capable of switching to Linux it’s hardly forced in any way that matters.

      It really doesn’t matter if you can bypass it. The issue with using windows is that you have to use windows.

      You can never disable telemetry fully and even if you could, it would be turned on again on the next update.

      It’s just not worth the effort to end up with a shittier OS when Linux exists and works so so well.

        If I recall right, they were getting rid of one older unsupported way to do that, but multiple news outlets misread it as getting rid of the ability to bypass at all and then the story got spread from there.
