It’s not specific to Microsoft, but the general idea of letting proprietary software install whatever it wants whenever it wants directly into your kernel is a bad idea regardless. If the user had any control over this update process, organizations could do small scale testing themselves before unleashing the update on their entire userbase. If it were open source software, the code would be reviewed by many more eyes and trsted independently by many more teams before release. The core issue is centralizing all trust on one organization, especially when that organization is a business and thus profit-droven above all else which could be an incentive to rush updates.
