I think the burden of proof is on you here. You said that Windows
contains spyware, DRM and backdoors, and only presented an article that
discusses the DRM.

Even if you consider DRM a form of spyware (which is debatable), you
original phrasing implies that Windows contains some other kinds of
spyware and backdoors, too.
