I the get the point of your comment, but the article does state that one of the proposed changes are that you can uninstall news and bing from the start menu / search.
I got mine to perm disable not by uninstalling, but by changing the folder permissions so nothing has access.
For example, my printer randomly disables itself. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, but I have to go into the settings and enable it before anything will print. Searching for solutions to this and the best I found was a suggestion to add a cron job that enables the printer automatically every x minutes.
I have some notes I add to every time I find an issue like that. It's a few pages long as this point.
I still don't really want to go back to Windows. They really have ruined it.
