In November last year, we reported on the removal of an unofficial KMS-related Windows activation, something which the company was planning to do for a while. The method worked by helping to activate Windows without an internet connection.
Have you ever had to install a Windows OS without the internet because the network card you have doesn’t work without setting up, and setting up requires an OS? I’ve encountered this twice in my life. The first time I actually paid money to Microsoft for Windows 8, and it was such a disrespectful fuckaround I pirated the next one, and am dropping Windows altogether after that.
