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.

He doesn't want "mandatory backdooors".

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.
No one* need jump on me, if I'm missing something. I'm no expert on encryption security.
*Like Ezekreep, who interpreted my statements regarding storing
encryted files on the cloud to mean files that apps like Google Docs
would need to manipulate, as if I didn't know that Google Docs would
not be able to deal with your encrypted files. The Kreep is a
*stupid* asshole and a liar, and doesn't mind making a fscking idiot
of himself, if it allows him to attack his betters.

Except he didn't.
Not that it matters. Windows is wide open without any mandatory backdoor

More mis-informed nonsense. Windows has had full disk encryption since
at least 8.1

Well, about once every five minutes or so, I get corrected by a superior.
What an extremely stupid business move.

You don't appear to be an expert on anything judging by most of your
posts.

Problem with Chromebooks in the enterprise - when IBM, HP, eBay,
Citi Bank, etc writes an email, internal document or spreadsheet they don't >want Google to see each and every word they write?
Ah the typical language of a Linux religious zealot. Unable to provide
facts or data they just rant and swear.
Pretty much everyone is suffering
from this export-grade encryption.
