IMO pirating Windows 11 is still a terrible idea, and I say that as somebody who pirated 10 Enterprise LTSC for about a decade.

Check this out:

The FBI used a Microsoft device identifier, dubbed GDID, to link a teenager to a hack attributed to Scattered Spider, raising privacy red flags about Windows’ surveillance capabilities.

So if you use Windows 11, especially an unlicensed copy, they know who you are, they know where you connect to, they know what you’re doing.

Microsoft wants you to use their shitty ecosystem, that’s why they never go after piracy.

They know you are pirating it, they don’t care. The data they scrape is way more valuable than the key you didn’t pay for.
