Blocking the operating system's manufacturer is a bad strategy. You need updates for whatever you install, or you are putting yourself at great risk.

(And really, in the connected times, you are no longer running software, you are entering into a partnership with a major company, and becoming part of their ecosystem. If you don't want to do that, just run Linux. It's free.)
