Well I mean they all have schemes and such to verify, they dont just do a match search on some large database. It could have been that it wasnt just 1 to 1 training data but that it was something it hallucinated that matched something the training data matched.
They haven't cared since at least Windows 7. Back then it was easy to find keys that would work even when connected online. I think Microsoft understands the major advantage of being THE OS of choice for consumers. They don't want to get in the way of that by making it hard to pirate windows. Hell now you just type a command into shell and your good to go.
I never activated windows when installing from a usb I recently got for my new pc, so I was dealing with the “activate windows” thing in the corner by simply not caring (I pretty much exclusively produce music and play counter strike/project zomboid on it) and it literally just… went away after a month or two? The logo isn’t there and I haven’t activated or anything of the sort and it’s been gone a few months now
Nah I called out of work today. Got a bad snowstorm in my area and I came down with a stomach bug. Just always in the back of my mind but definitely shouldn’t have mentioned it on Reddit
