If they did not change anything, they would be blamed for that as well. Most of the Windows 11 UI changes are pretty "meh" in my book, so I could certainly do without, but do not really mind them either. But I do appreciate they have kept updating the UI and interaction model so it does not work the same as Windows 1, even if it does mean they had to ignore a bunch of "why did they do this" comments.

You agreed to what? Doctor check-in software harvests your health data.[^]
Not sure if this is used in Europe, but I would not be surprised. What do you do when the doctor office converts to this? I suspect that most offices have no idea the application farms patient data. It's despicable.

Nothing wrong with the name, but I would have made the side-effects of dereferencing a NULL return value much more spectacular.

That's only relevant to protected-memory O/Ses (most of them, these days, I'll grant). Running on good old DOS, you could easily read (and sometimes write) to NULL, while your program went off into hyperspace.
If every NULL reference cost the perpetrator money out of pocket (e.g. if the computer literally crashed and burned), I'm sure that software quality would have been much higher.

Back in the day my product ran under the DOS4GW extender (just like DOOM!). In that environment I had both real-mode and protected-mode code for things like interrupt services in order to reduce unnecessary mode switches. Dereferencing NULL meant different things happened depending on which mode you were in. My hindsight has cataracts, so good times.
