Microsoft will continue to eliminate workarounds. Copilot needs your data for training purposes. Snapshot, Onedrive, mandatory accounts, are all ways of forcing users to give up their data.

    I personally think the workarounds are an intentional strategy to drip feed the "power users" and make them stop complaining/switching away. it also probably works to make them feel smart.

    like do you seriously fucking believe ms would unintentionally leave oobe\bypassnro as a command you can type?? this is some Hollywood hacking type shit
