Going that way is a great way to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Messing with their equipment is going not going to end well.

Switch to Linux. I did it a few months ago and I have zero complaints, even in gaming.
Workplaces are all about the apps. If those apps you need only run in Windows, that’s what you run. Believe me, businesses would LOVE to cut license costs.
I was getting a couple of pop up ads in my Win10 install, and I switched a couple of months ago. The more I looked at gaming, the more I realized it could be done.
Ad block is NOT piracy. And use Ublock Origin.
Based on my experience working in a call center, I wouldn’t call it unnecessary. People are fucked up.
Whole point of the Hyperloop was to stop California from building out high speed rail. And it worked. Musky thought it would cut into his EV sales.
Steve did it with Newegg. Tech Jesus has balls when gamers/enthusiasts are getting screwed.
Ironically, that is why I wanted Stadia to succeed. It would have forced many game companies to consider Linux.
But Google screwed the pooch.
Use Firefox. The crypto bros running Brave have been caught multiple times gathering and selling user data. You use Chrome as the base when you want to hoover data.
Way back in the day, my best friend had a family friend that owned a computer software store. He rented games and gave us copies of the latest and greatest copy programs with a wink-wink and a nudge-nudge.
Remember, no business is required to tell the truth. Had a pipeline go through my backyard and you would not believe the lies that company told. Glad I lawyered up instead of believing the lies.
Only if you sold it. Back when cassette tapes first came out, the mystic music industry sued, and the Supreme Court ruled it fair use. So VHS tapes were under the same umbrella. We wouldn’t get that same ruling now.
Holy hell, that was one hell of an autocorrect on mobile.
It the same mechanism. They can do it, they just don’t want to.
It’s the 90s webguru all over again!
They can. I buy and gift games to my son all the time.
Including cell calling?
That info can go stale quickly as content licensing changes. I’ve ran into that plenty.
There are still plenty of good deals in streaming if you have shifted to on-demand. If you want live TV or sports, they’re out to gouge the fuck out of you. Luckily my Wife came around to on-demand only and an antenna. Of course, they’re trying hard to take away the antenna option from everyone with ATSC 3.0.
I’d say the Nexus phones (pure Android) were way more a game changer than the Pixels.
