- orphea 2y agoDon't forget that we all are in an echo chamber. Most people are not pushed anywhere, they don't care. They don't even know that Microsoft is hostile.
- devsda 2y agoYeah. Only MS knows the actual impact of their decisions. The fact that they are removing a workaround says that it doesn't impact them much i.e. their actual users don't care. Despite all these shenanigans, their regular users will be oblivious to the harm and power users will still grudgingly use it.
- hans_castorp 2y agoI guess(!), MS makes most of their profit from Windows licenses with enterprise licenses, where all users are managed through ActiveDirectory. If that assumption is correct, then I guess the financial losses of private users not migrating to Windows 11 might be negligible.
- Ekaros 2y agoHow many actual retail licenses they sell? Either retail or individual OEM. As with pre-builds for consumer market license is already there. And lot of home builders just go for grey market which have fraction of retail price. Even Home is not exactly cheapest product if bought retail from regular reseller.
- guappa 2y agoThey care. They don't know what to do about it.
