    1. Because I shouldn’t have to. It’s purely Microsoft forcing it.
    2. I only have 1 PC in my workshop, but there are companies in the same situation which have dozens.

      Not saying you should, I was just pointing out that you can get Internet/connection to your garage/workshop for like $100 these days. I’d assume most shops with that large of a footprint have some sort of IT service, in house IT, or buying it from a vendor that has that setup already.
