    Piracy is not a real solution to the problem. Microsoft allows these sorts of things to exist in the background because they would rather lose out on some sales than lose market share.

      Kinda the same thing as winrar. They rather have consumers get used to it so the companies they work at have a higher chance of buying licenses. That’s where the real money is.

      Piracy is the solution when what you think you’re buying is not what you’re getting and the company that you’re buying changes the product without your consent.
