You have the same choice Use Windows or don't use Windows I do not get it. Makes no sense to me

I think you misunderstood me. It's not a question of security. It's a question of Microsoft changing things whether you want them to or not, taking WAY too much personal data and forcing you to use Copilot, Recall and a number of other terrible ideas. I DO NOT WANT TO KNOW. My laptop works fine as is, so I don't want changes. The risk is much less than Microsoft alleges (Norton is on the case - hell, it picked up on a dodgy torrent, of all things), and I accept it.
As I said, there's always Linux.
I'm debating buying a 4TB internal SSD so I can dual boot and try both - and if (as is likely) I prefer Linux, that'll be PLENTY of space.
