That was one of the things that drove me away from Windows. Coming to my desk in the morning to see my computer on not sleeping because it woke up to apply updates or some other shit pissed me off.

Just one of the many ways that with Windows, my computer didn't feel like I was in control of it anymore.

With Linux, I'm in complete control and it feels so good. Also knowing that I'm not giving out data just by using my computer is great. And FOSS is just cool.
