After leaving Windows I actually still get stressed just reading about stuff like this.
Personally I hate these tools with a passion as every single one I've seen goes overboard and disables potentially wanted features or straight up breaks stuff in its default configuration. It's always fun to figure out what's wrong with a machine only to eventually figure out that the owner used one of those tools a few months ago.
IMO people should either do these changes themselves or use another OS, though ultimately there needs to be legislation against this to help the non-technical people.
