If it's free you're the product. Gee, where have I heard that before? Funny, how things boomerang back to hit you in the ass.

  It does not have to be free. It can be an expensive app, but still tried to play games with you. Have you checked, where your (offline) MS-Office connects, while you are working purely on offline files? Until now, it tried the following: www.microsoft.com, watson.microsoft.com, ots.optimize.webtrends.com, support.office.com, services.live.com, officeapps.live.com, live.com.akadns.net.

  windows 10 is only free if you have a legitimate key for 8.1

    What? I have a legit install of 7, and it never bloody stops nagging me to accept a free upgrade to 10.

      What do you mean you don't want it? Just look at the long list of features mentioned in this thread that you will get if you upgrade!

  If you actually understood the words you were saying, you'd realize that the topic of this thread is that users are the product even though they've paid for the software. The solution to this problem is software that is free as in freedom, not snarky comments in support of MS.
