And these are just the ones about privacy... it get old, especially since nothing has changed since the release yet.

> it gets old

and yet it still is an urgent issue that we should not silently accept because it's "getting old" and "nothing will change".

Except when the same information is posted by 6 websites and all 6 of those articles have made the front page, you start to alienate people in the middle who understand all of the current information and are now unhappy with the one sided coverage and angry internet mob of people who already weren't using Windows.

Those are different articles. Your comment is analogous to linking to old Docker article discussions when a new article is posted in order to try to discourage discussion of Docker in general.

They are different articles about the same issue and I'm not trying to discourage discussion about it. It just gets old seeing the same thing on the front page but that's just my opinion and you don't have to agree with it.

My criticism isn't about your opinion. It's about your abuse of the "Previous discussion" convention.
