    This would be no different to you ordering food in a restaurant, them bringing you the wrong meal, you refusing because you didn’t order it, then they tell you to go fuck yourself and charge you for it anyway.

    If this argument is valid in your judicial system then you live in a clown world capitalist dictatorship.

      Have you seen the state of the US? A “clown world capitalist dictatorship” is a pretty apt description

      I’m saying they might send people the bill and then these people (well, companies) are going to have to fight it in court, where they’ll be right for sure, but Microsoft can make a lot of stupid arguments to prolong the whole thing, to the point where it’s cheaper to pay the license fee. For one they could say that continued use of the operating system constitutes agreement to licenses and pricing.

      Either way this is server 2025 not windows 12. We’re talking about companies here, not people.
