Microsoft's relentless Windows 10 nagware has interrupted a live TV weather forecast, urging meteorologist Metinka Slater to upgrade.
The operating system suddenly popped up a box on screen insisting the station's computer be upgraded to the latest version--while Slater was on air describing thunderstorms rolling through Iowa, USA.
The cyber-badgering blatted over her doppler weather radar, which was being broadcast on KCCI 8 News [April 27].
"Microsoft recommends upgrading to Windows 10. Gosh, what should I do?" Slater asked sarcastically.
So, do you know of a case of MSFT update pushiness that rivals this?

oh yeah, it's IT's fault they didn't anticipate their adversary's(MS) next move or in what exact way MS had already worked against them. Windows makes otherwise competent IT staff look bumbling b/c of how things are bastardized, hidden and constantly reworked to attempt to further subjugate it's users. What kind of sell out defends MS scum?
