By design of how the world works, people cannot have 100% online computers all the time, and surely people who pirated Windows are not going to risk making an account, let alone for linking purposes to their machine. Who knows.

You only need the connection for activation, not for general use.

Usually you can buy a windows ~~license~~ activation code from someone for $3-5, why would you pirate it? You can get the official windows version and put in your code.

It's better for windows if you use such a license than linux.

Many people feel Ameliorated Windows is better though. At this point I just prefer Linux with Wine/Proton and a Windows XP VM.

Linux is always the better choice :) but many people still rely on windows and think linux is just something for nerds
