Let me say that again, CEIP is entirely voluntary and it’s not active by default unless you’re using the Insider program, contrary to what the rumors suggest.
What they are back porting to 7 & 8.x is the enhanced telemetry for third party applications for those that use that feature, and that entire feature is entirely voluntary. Still, I hope every single Windows installation moves to Windows 10 soon, especially those still using dreadful Windows XP. I think it’s pretty irresponsible to continue using outdated software that isn’t receiving security updates anymore (is Windows 7 in that category yet?), but at the same time, it is your machine, and if you want to run insecure software – well, be my guest. We don’t think twice about updating to new operating systems releases on smartphones of tablets, but on PCs, we always get really uppity about it. And of course, if you choose to upgrade (our recommendation!), then you will have 31 days to roll back to your previous Windows version if you don’t love it.
Before the upgrade changes the OS of your device, you will be clearly prompted to choose whether or not to continue. Depending upon your Windows Update settings, this may cause the upgrade process to automatically initiate on your device. Early next year, we expect to be re-categorizing Windows 10 as a “Recommended Update”.
