I’m not sure how accurate StatCounter is, given that most Linux users use adblockers. However, according to it, Linux has almost a 14% desktop share in India.

    only legal options are

    You could also just download the ISO from MS directly and use it without activation. It’ll only prevent you from changing the theme and wallpaper, but you could just change the registry entries directly or use a third-party tool to change your wallpaper/theme.

      And no BitLocker (without fiddling around even more)? No, thanks.

      There’s no way Microsoft can win this moral battle, they’ll profit off you enough with all their tracking, have you seen the atrocious setup screen at installation they put you through?

      • Do you want to ads?
      • Do you want to a keylogger?
      • Do you want to get tracked?
      • Do you want to get fucked?

      Yes, please, daddy GatesNadella

      (Sorry, can’t help myself from sounding like a nutjob when Microsoft gets into the equation)

        Not sure what you’re getting at here. I’m a Linux user FYI, I’m just disagreeing with the OP’s comment that there are only two legal options.
