When Stallman warned people about the risks of proprietary software, people laughed and continued using Windows.
You created this problem. You kept buying Windows when they added telemetry, ads and other forms of privacy invasion, so you emboldened to go one step further. And when they are done with this they will invade your privacy more and more.
If Facebook can require Facebook login for the Oculus then Microsoft can require Microsoft Login for Windows. It works. You made it work.
If wolves accept the convenience of eating leftovers from human camps what is the worse that can happen? Yeah, they got domesticated. That just happened to you. By using a Microsoft account now you are living inside Microsoft's data farm as marked cattle.
It is not your computer anymore. You gave computing away by being complacent just like the wolves were.
Your decisions matter, and your decisions have consequences.
