Hmmmm. I'm thinking they flat out lie !!!
O-M-G!! Let me get this straight. It's not about the revenues?? Uh-huh. It's not about gaining more control over your users?? Uh-huh. It's not about being able to eventually disable any computer you want if you think it's not in compliance with whatever you decide is appropriate?? (You know.... to eventually force people into subscriptions.) Uh-huh.

Yeah, sure. I believe you Microsoft. Excuse me. I have to go hurl now.

>> "A lot of people believe that it might be about the revenue, but in actual fact, it is about the security and privacy of the users. Some research that we've done finds that the incidence of malware (malicious software) is a lot higher on pirated software, so we really are trying to make sure that users really have the opportunity to protect themselves." <<
