Microsoft stipulates account requirement for 'personal use' of Windows 11 Pro Edition
-
Microsoft indicated in a Thursday announcement that it will require the use of Microsoft Accounts (MSAs) for "personal use" of the Windows 11 Pro edition operating system on initial setup.
"It's not personal, it's strictly business"
Because nothing gets people to upgrade than having another hoop to jump through.

User of MSAs must agree that Microsoft can collect certain personal information. That information includes "credentials, name and contact data, payment data, device and usage data, your contacts, information about your activities, and your interests and favorites," according to Microsoft's "Privacy Statement" document.
Fuck Microsoft.

A classic example of, “if you’re not paying for it, you’re the product.” :sigh:

Possibly, the announcement of an MSA requirement for Windows 11 Pro edition personal users doesn't just apply to Windows Insider Program testers, but also will apply more broadly to future purchasers of the Windows 11 Pro edition product.
Maybe even if you pay for it. By the sound of it, that 'maybe' is disappearing.

Why do I suspect that they'll define personal as "not on a domain" to suck in small businesses and schools too?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius
