I don't fucking know why I can't eject USB hard drives. I installed the SysInternals apps, and best they can tell me is that Dropbox is fucking with the drives. I explicitly told Dropbox to not fuck with USB drives. I don't know who's lying, I just want whoever is fucking with the drives to stop fucking with the drives, OK??? OK.

Windows dialogue about failing to eject an USB drive, because an application is using it. Aside of "OK", a new button says "Well why don't you tell them to fuck off♪~"

It's because they don't want to break compatibility with existing software. Which I understand, because if they broke old software then people could just migrate to Linux as well
