   If that were the extent of it, there wouldn't be a problem.

   Except it's not just about "what they get their hands on".

   This crap is being "pushed" at people and has been engineered 
specifically to be as "easy" and as "simple" as possible. So the
process of "getting their hands on it" has become completely 
trivial if not automatic.

    If the user were actually in control, it might not be so bad.

    However, that's not the case. That is not the situation that
Microsoft has engineered.
