If I were on a court or jury, I would rule that repeatedly showing an annoying pop up until you press Agree, doesn't count as actual acceptance of the terms, I don't care what the rules are but fuck that practice.

I've just doubled down on not using Microsoft tbh. I shouldn't have to spend so much time and effort cleaning a clean install of an OS. And have updates change things so they don't work the same or at all any more, or you just can't find them. Fuck that.

Didn't this all get decided legally like two decades ago when Microsoft tried to do the same kind of thing with internet Explorer?
