What's your point, exactly? Let's say we accept your premise that this is an unfair double-standard that Microsoft shouldn't have to respect... have you considered the logical conclusion that this creates? That the public should just... blithely accept Google-style nag prompts baked into literally any piece of software or hardware, even when they hold a paid license? I don't think a reasonable person would intentionally advocate for such a thing, so please help me understand what you really meant.

That's neither my premise nor the logical conclusion of the premise you invented.

A reasonable person should interpret my comment to mean that Google does the same thing, and if you feel a certain way about Microsoft for doing this, you should feel the same way about Google.

I see! Thank you for clarifying. I am very sorry for inventing premises and arriving at illogical conclusions.
