    Would you take a "Free Upgrade to Windows 10" after the chairman of the developers of Windows 10 just called for mandatory backdoors in all
    computers?

    Meanwhile its main competitor which advertises being more secure and (misleadingly) advertises lack of malware, is fighting against it?

    Statements like that cause stock prices to plunge.

    In other words, you have none. You can shut up now.

    I'm not sure if Windows desktops even need a backdoor. They don't
    generally use full-disk encryption, like the new phones do, and other
    privacy solutions, like GPG, probably can't be backdoored.

    not be able to deal with your encrypted files. The Kreep is a

    Truth from Peter the Klöwn. Call the presses!

    Meanwhile, the security holes that end up being reported in the news
    nowadays are from open-source projects such as Android.

    khazars are not a "race" but a bastard "race" lie all of eastern Europe & ex Soviet northern states that did not come in existence circa 700 years ago. It adopted Judaism, that does not make it a Semite. Most Semites are from the Middle East. As "slimer"
    is part of this genetic scum that has yet to produce anything from that part of the world -therefore a well known expression "bastard by race, bastard by nature". This seen in actual history, the invasion of the West by this EEU vermin, changing the
    entire identity to suit its own needs, western wars 1 and 2, invasion of the roots of Christianity & worshiping a Roman horse stable called:

    WAILING WALL = FORT ANTONIO REMAINS *NOT* OLD TEMPLE

    DEVILS AT THE WAILING WALL

    [AUDIO] http://www.texemarrs.com/popcast/4313.m3u

    The “Jews” are perpetrating a monumental hoax on Christians
    and the West by presenting their Wailing Wall, in Jerusalem
    on the Temple Mount, as the holy and sacred remains of their
    famed Jewish Temple. In fact, the Western Wall, as it is better
    known, was not part of the Temple, but is a remnant of the
    Roman’s old and historic Fort Antonia. Jesus Himself
    prophesied that, of the Temple, not one stone would be left
    upon another. It would be totally destroyed, and in 70 A.D.,
    it was, by Roman General Titus. But four centuries ago, a
    plot was worked to use this wall as a propaganda device to
    unite the Jews and to confound the Moslems. Today,
    dumbed-down American and European politicians and
    Hollywood stars trek to the Wailing Wall and put their
    written prayer in a crack in the wall’s missing mortar.
    This voodoo mumbo-jumbo is then broadcast across the globe.

    Khazar Whites are not Semites, it wants your children for sex slavery, its organs stolen, kiddie fiddling, an active 5th column, protected hate speech, arms smuggling, Nazi inventing & funding, etc. The list is endless

    at least 8.1

    It has since Win2K. But in W2K it is extremely easy to defeat.
    starting with XP it is halfway secure, but has lots of problems (and still
    has) when several users in a network have access to encrypted files

    you wouldn't look like an idiot now.

    You forgot to post the actual quote from Gates where he "wants mandatory backdoors."

    Then again, we all know that there is no such quote.

    Fact is that files in the cloud were *never* mentioned once in that thread which was about Google Docs. So your excuse simply doesn't hold water. Yes turd, you made a jackass of yourself. Put on your big boy pants and deal
    with it.
