Windows 10 S will only allow you to run apps from the Microsoft Store, which means you can't run iTunes or Chrome, unless you pay US$49 to upgrade it into an actual Windows.
I'm fairly sure RMS warned us around 20 years ago that this kind of stuff was coming, and people laughed and said 'that's paranoia, they'll never lock the desktop down that far'.

@natecull how long before Amazon et al sue someone for letting another person use their Kindle?
@tqft in retrospect 'The Right to Read' was incredibly optimistic - it had moonbases.
Ok on the other hand we do have the open access science movement, so Elsevier and Amazon haven't locked up *everything* yet. But what openness we have only happened because people fought for it.
@natecull I don't think the copyright/info wars are over.
cf Cory Doctrow and the War On General Purpose Computing.
I am not confident Apple, Amazan, Facebook, Google, music book and movie publishers are going to go gentle into a Creative Commons post scarcity future.
The progress we have made is fragile.
So we keep fighting.
