If your computer has never been connected to the internet, you needn't worry.

The problem is, so many modern programs can't install without an internet connection.

I remember the 1980s-90s, when you'd buy a program on a floppy disc or CD-COM. You owned it forever. No annual licenses. No cloud. No updates. And nobody knew what you did with your program or your computer.
