So I now get advertised to by windows:

1) On the login screen (if you let it do its OOBE login background thing)

2) On the post login screen every time I update asking me to sign in to cloud (which is actually asking me to pay for cloud)

3) On the OS notifications on login prompting me to sign in to cloud

4) On the badge of my non-cloud user in the start menu with an orange blip that looks like a notification but is really a prompt to sign in and pay for cloud

5) At the top of my start menu begging me to pay for xbox live

6) Looking at email

7) Any app with AI features that'll be horny to beg you to buy new AI credits. Like notepad.exe

Is there a reason I shouldn't continue showing people how to steal their software or /ideally/ invest in alternatives?

8. In the Defender notification, which looks scary, and tells you to setup OneDrive to keep your data safe. If you dare to click on it, it will nag you to change your login from a local account to a MS account.
