I've been running the release candidates for while because I need to
prepare my software for it. I don't like it either, it feels sneaky in
almost everything it does. There are enough real problems with hardware and
software, that I don't like the idea of built-in kill switches or other
restrictions that will eventually backfire one way or another.
