Don't speak in empty slogans, connect it to the article/comment!

Some app does some thing, then the OS reverts it! Where is "you" and "own" in this process? Do you own the "C:\Windows\SYSBCKUP" folder? Do you own the undo process?

Would your "ownership" rights increase if instead the OS didn't waste any space, but simply blocked downgrades of system components without user warning/intervention? Or had an even better process?
