50 points · Open discussionYeah, you need to be very cautious with megacorp software these days. Disable internet access before putting your laptop to sleep or better don't even give it access to the entire internet in the first place, as the OS, the drivers, everything working in background will abuse it.
Although if you just want to control updates wumgr [1] still works, check it out. I use windows laptop pretty rarely, like a few times per year maybe and it helps a lot.
