    Microsoft tried that with TPM. Which you can bypass for the most part with Rufus and a clean install. Still some kernel anticheat games you can’t do so so easily.

    I’ve already switched over to Linux, just got one more system to migrate. So far 100% worth it to not deal with Microslop.

      What I am truly afraid of, is they somehow get ahold of Linux, and force slopware onto it, including that EoL bs. Keep offline devices as backup.

        Uh that can’t happen with Linux. The closest you can look at is Red Hat, which doesn’t affect distros from Debian or Arch.
