Yeah no... what is this? and where is this?
I'm on the latest stable version of W11 and I have tons of pirated content on my PC lmao
I've never gotten this message
This post was just a honeypot to see who admits to having possession of pirated content. Please stay where you are and authorities will be dispatched to your location shortly.
My 3rd world ass
Seems it requires specific hardware to run. Newer AMD or Snapdragon processors can run it, all other processors (currently) cannot.
I get a dialogue from Microsoft defender smart screen that looks mighty similar to this whenever I've done a clean install of Oobabooga's Text Generation WebUI (for running local Large Language Models) with it basically going "are you really sure about running that" for an incredibly niche piece of software. OP seems to have lost the plot if you ask me, because quite frankly Microsoft will only be able to exert the level of influence over our machine if it were in the cloud running on their servers. and even then, they aren't going to kill off the local windows install because funnily enough, the internet ain't that available.
At this point non-internet connected Windows machines are such a niche part of their budget that they're almost but not quite mandating cloud accounts just for installation. They can absolutely force this on people's machines.
