AFAIC, ALL MS operating systems are untrustworthy and riddled with backdoors built-in on purpose. The fact that they've been pretty much giving them away for free or next to nothing for years should be a red flag. And it doesn't matter how many fancy third-party security apps you install; won't protect you against the gubbermint spying on you through your MS PC one iota. Thought criminals and dissidents had better find some other O/S!
you should update to close security vulnerabilities, but not because M$ wants you to change versions.
BTW has anyone else noticed that the last few updates to win 7 has made it run even more like a dog? IIRC the same thing happened with XP years of updates were fine, but when there was a new product we were supposed to be using the last few months of updates again crushed performance?
Sorry I didn't quote any references

Yeah, they want to tunnel into and probe the piss out of that one and anything else attached to it too.
