>>103236405what's wrong with geezers who feel entitled to "own" everything? newsflash: you never owned windows, you just licensed it from microsoft. you're always connected to ms servers anyway to receive updates and send telemetry and access onedrive, which already needs a subscription. this is a minor change. your cringe "digital rights" movement is never happening because you're all aging millennial incels waiting to get kicked out of your houses when mommy dies. zoomers are fine with subs.
