Re: In what is likely to be more cock-up than conspiracy,
yeah, the fact you cannot turn off all slurping is a bug as well, the fact that they keep hiding it in updates to Windows 7 is due to bugs as well ... they really, really, really meant to have separate optional patches for slurping in 7, but somehow, the build system went haywire and decided on its very own, thanks to MS' incredibly efficient AI built in to its CC, that it would be much better to hide any slurpy features in obscure patches.
No conspiracy, here ... all bugs!
