nope, just use linux. Linux should be getting bigger and more appealing because its the supirior OS now
FUD, was going to post it earlier if it was legit to bash M$. Would be upset if it deleted my PSP and Dreamcast backups.

"Microsoft's Services EULA is different from the one governing Windows (Microsoft Software License Terms), which means that the amendments Microsoft added recently were to protect against counterfeiting of Xbox Live and Windows Store content, and not monitoring (or disabling) illicit content on Windows 10."

Okie doke. Continue your piracy and pretend that it's some travesty when a company tries to stop you.
I really dont care what people do, but companies trying to stop piracy is happening and will continue too.
I'm sure a workaround will be found soon. Just like Windows 7 or XP, if MS detected a pirated version they could disable it, but all you needed was a 15KB patch to keep it active.
Piracy will never be stopped, and all this will end up doing (as it always does) is somehow screw legal owners out of their game/app.

No, the similarity would rather be people who are for piracy think it should be ok for me to shop at the grocery store but I think it is unreasonable that I have to check out all the merchandise before I leave.
If its limited to MS services and MS games, then sure, whatever. But if they become the "ethical authority" of my personal files? Fuck that. How do we even know that they can accurately identify the "bad" software anyways?
There are many grey areas, if you own the physical copy then you're allowed to download certain things and so on, but MS will never know that. Sounds really shady.
Again though, if they search for and disable fake windows copies for example, I'm fine with that. They kinda do that now anyways.
Can't wait for the system to block games with mods because they were altered in comparison to original versions!
Well, we will have a shitstorm sooner or later and Microsoft will remove that policy. They like to do 180s anyway.

Why would they remove a policy that exist since 2012 anyway.
Oh btw, this policy is not for Windows 10 only, it's for every Windows.
MS at its work
So win10 free to find pirates and prevent piracy brillian
