If I may add my two cents...

This is really one of those very emotional toppics. However, I thought it would be good to point out that Windows code, has been moved along from a very insecure operating system called DOS and the first versions of Windows were very insecure. Windows has come a long way, I still would rather run *NIX because I can control it.

Kudos to MS for working to make it more secure. I am more concerned with all the logging and spying on me it does.

Plus they say guns don't kill people, people kill people... (I am not a gun advocate) but stupid users are just that. They are virus and malware magnets. I bet if all the really stupid Windows users used Linux it would be much less safe as well. Everyone would be using their little chat programs as root etc...
