Upgrading to Windows 10 is pretty much necessary. Windows 8 was just too flawed and no one wants to keep using it now that there's Windows 10. And since programmers don't want to deal with Windows 8 anymore, there's a logistical problem in finding programmers willing to write new Windows updates.
'course Apple's an option, but that's like moving to North Korea to avoid a new reduction in civil liberties here in the US. Sure you're technically avoiding this specific problem, but the place that you're moving to is much darker.

I like my Apple computer(iPad Air) way more than than my old Toshiba laptop: They also send you the new updates on a very regular basis(usually one at all time), and it only takes a few minutes to get you right up to date again(also way less worries about viruses). But on the other hand, Apple products are expensive.
