lmao its a matter of time before MS decides they need to DDoS someone so hard their data center explodes and they'll be ready to do it
Not sure if it's still a thing but I remember they also used windows to distribute updates to other windows PCs in a bittorrent-like fashion.
Blizzard used to do that as well with world of Warcraft updates IIRC ( during vanilla )
