S-mode is cancer. An insult to intelligence and digital sovereignty. So is Windows in general, but I still can't believe they got away with S-mode.

I once encountered a user whose laptop had been in s-mode for 2 whole years. I suggested that they should disable S-mode, and that would allow them to do what they were trying to do much more easily, and without installing random 3rd-party malware from the Windows store. They declined, citing safety concerns. This was a person with an advanced degree, and certainly old enough to know better. Some people should just avoid computers altogether.
