They're emphasizing their ability to suspend all services and accounts of any user who violates their MS Services Agreement.
A rather lengthy list, but this statement caught my attention: "Don’t engage in activity that is harmful to you, the Services or others (e.g., transmitting viruses, stalking, posting terrorist or violent extremist content, communicating hate speech, or advocating violence against others).
I wonder who gets to define the above? What, exactly, will they consider hate speech?
that would be SaaS not SAS. SAS is a Statistical Analysis System and transmission is tricky over X.25.
Again: to what service did you sign up to receive this? This is a EULA. This is as boilerplate as they come. You’ve got a problem with the way they word something? Do you think Microsoft doesn’t employ a fleet of lawyers? If you don’t like how something is worded, then don’t consume their services. Not sure why you thought it was necessary to post yet another anti-MS FUD screed on FR because of some words that triggered you. I just don’t get it.
Honestly... just the characters MS trigger me. :)
Even my work computer (Windows 10) only runs one program--VMware Workstation--so that I can run Linux exclusively at work. Only those people I have told actually know that I run Linux. With my messenger program, and Office suite, I interact daily with people all over the institution and they do not know I don't run Windows.
It makes my job *so* much easier.
Really? Of course the answers are Microsoft and any Conservative thought.
They missed me.
I knew that Ace, I just had to rib you a bit. You were obviously way ahead of the game. I now kick myself for not doing it sooner. So much heartache and MS customer abuse I could have avoided. But at least I got out of the mess while still in win 7 mode and have been able to ward off the wonderful win 10 “experience” altogether. Cool that you can use it at work also and have that peace of mind. :)
LOL. That's exactly what I do with my work laptop. I honestly do not understand how people deal with not having the gnu toolset available.(along with vi)
