The video was uploaded to YouTube by Enderman and got taken down approximately two hours after that.

So wait, if you activate a machine with this key wouldn’t that alert a bunch people?

I mean given Bill’s ties to Epstein and whatnot. Ms would keep track of that right?

I wonder if W7 had some kind of backup cloud feature… you know, restore lists …

Windows 7 came out in 2007, if I remember correctly. That was a time when it wasn't that uncommon to have a computer without an internet connection. Telemetry also wasn't really a thing, either - when you had crashes or usage data the OS thought might be useful to Microsoft, the OS actually asked you, and understood that no means no. Honestly, those were better times in that regard...
