Normies will pay. They aint got nothing to hide and they are not poor!
Quit being poor, mate
Normies won't pay for this wtf are you smoking? They're just gonna let their computer not be up to date and not care.
They'll just let Windows update their system to 11
Unless their machine doesn't meet the hardware requirements.
Then they'll just stop updating until they can afford a new computer. People who can't afford a computer that can run Windows 11 certainly aren't paying for security updates. So the guy I replied to is right.
Maybe you are right... This aint netlfix
This isnt available to individuals anyhow, only to schools and businesses.
It's actually available for individuals now, the first time Microsoft has done this. Though it isn't clear if Home versions most individuals would have is included, or if it's for the Pro version only.
Oh interesting! I was reading something recently that said MS had clarified that it was for businesses only, but that must have been an old article.
This makes me want to downgrade to 10 and just pay for the subscription
