The major reason why MSFT is going in for Automatic/Default updates is that there are way too many Unpatched Machines out there;which automatically lead to malware outbreaks by the Millions.
Thousands and Thousands of unpatched Machines are comandeered for Botnets by Financial Criminals today.
All because they are unpatched.
If anything one should give MSFT credit for going the extra mile and fixing this issue before it turns serious.
