yeah and they also made an online account, optional.
Good thing it's still optional.
Did I miss something about online accounts being required? I don't remember hearing about that.
yeah no, so there's this cool thing, where when you install windows, it shows you this screen where it asks you to connect to the internet, and if you do (because god forbid you want updates) it requires you to sign in via a microsoft account. (yes technically you can just enter bogus information, or not connect to the internet) but you can also just not get caught by the police after committing a crime.
They USED to have a "skip" button, but they removed that years ago.
