What if Microsoft did this ransomware shit themselves?
They've been super pissed about the low adoption rate of Windows 10 and pretty butthurt perhaps that tens of millions of company computers around the world are using shit like XP, they're losing money in these areas. They know that people aren't obviously going to switch to Macs, because for many reasons that can't work out, and Linux, yeah no. So maybe they did this to force everyone to be on the latest OS. It seems insane and crazy, but I don't totally rule it out.

You say that as if anything can make large organizations with ossified bureaucracies deploy IT in a timely fashion. The NHS was already running XP without a support contract, and had been for over a year. This won't concentrate minds and get them to be serious about patching things in a timely fashion. They'll fire a few scapegoats, probably in upper management, and things will continue on as before.

Dunno why they would release a patch for Windows 7 if that were true. Only people still on XP can't patch it.

They released a patch for it back in March. The KB4012212 update had this exploit plugged already.

OP, I would honestly be surprised if this actually wasn't the case. MS have been seriously cranking up the shady business practices up to 11 their "Rollup" update method. The April one dropped a doozy.

Yep, thats right. If you install that update and you have a Kabylake or Ryzen CPU, it completely locks you out of ever receiving any more future updates. This is purely a business change. There is absolutely zero technical reasons for this to happen.
