Should OS makers, like Microsoft, be legally required to provide 15 years of security updates?

    yeah but you don’t pay 150euros for it + all the ads and stuffs

    but yeah, I don’t see the point of this, it’s clearly aimed at Microsoft, and at this point alternative solutions exist

      I almost feel like the compromise we will eventually land on is that if an OS maker like Microsoft wants to continue advertising on your OS they have to take some liability for its security.
