That's going to be interesting.

Here in Germany, we are forced to use Windows in schools because "it's what the kids need in the real world".

By forcing Windows to work cloud-only, they are literally making it illegal to use in schools here, because we can't force children to use anything doing data-harvesting in order to pursue their education.

Fun times ahead!

At this rate if Germany becomes a leader in exporting non data harvesting devices/vehicles I can assure you I'll be buying all my electronics from Germany soon enough.

Germany exports cars that require a subscription fee to use the seat heater. It's not data harvesting, but it's still pure evil.

Sounds like the beginning of the Linux revolution starting with kids!
