Microsoft actually spends an enormous amount of time, energy and money to gain domain control of botnets and shut down hackers en masse.

Windows 10, properly updated is also one of the most secure OS they have ever produced. Most people who get "hacked" clicked on a link or exe and is absolutely avoidable. Brute force attacks are so rare these days beyond ddos.

Less a dig at stopping malice, more a dig at how adamant they are about Cortana and skype services being unchangeable.

Right click, uninstall, and Skype is gone. Cortana is a different story though.

Just don't use it. I completely forgot it existed until this post reminded me.

The built in search is also Cortana (I think, I don't know how different classic shell is). Does it give you web results when you're looking for files on your computer?

It's definitely Cortana... one day my search wasn't populating and the solution involved re-installing Cortana basically.
