“Windows 10 could start bullying people into using a Microsoft account to install”
My firewalled and pi-holed virtual machines with Windows XP or 7 and Office say hi.
It’s funny how technology giants believe that we (and especially small-medium enterprises) have nothing better to do than to deal with or circumvent user-hostile schemes designed to usher in an era of digital serfdom.
Coincidentally, my servers, office workstations and laptops running various versions of Debian Linux or Fedora Project with Gnome/XFCE, Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird and LibreOffice also say hi and bye-bye to such predatory Microsoft nonsense.
