Re: Making Users Afraid Of Updates Is The Opposite Of Responsible
"To create a FEAR of updating is irresponsible and guaranteed to hurt the customers. Outrageously poor job, Logitech."
True, but let's be honest here: Logitech is not the only company that is making people hesitate to apply updates. The majority of the tech industry, and particularly the big players like Microsoft, are doing the exact same thing.
It's an entirely justified fear, and is why I no longer trust applications or most operating systems to autoupdate. In fact, on some platforms (such as Windows and anything mobile), I have to go so far as to firewall all applications off so they don't get all sneaky. We've reached a point in the industry where you must treat all tech, hardware and software, as malicious until it's proven otherwise.
