Windows 10 can automatically switch off pirated software – Eurogamer.it

Update, 17 hours : As reported by TechPowerUp, these conditions unique to Microsoft services.

The EULA would in fact services Microsoft, not the Windows installation 10. Therefore, Microsoft can disable any services or pirated Microsoft software (such as contents of the Windows Store, Xbox Live Tiles …), but can not block other programs on your PC.

Original article : The user agreement (EULA) for Windows 10 states that the operating system has the right to automatically disable any pirated programs.

Alphr (thanks, MCV) has pointed this amendment EULA of Windows 10:

“[Microsoft] could automatically check the version of the software and download updates, or make configuration changes, including those that will block the ‘ use of services, to counterfeit games and hardware devices unauthorized “.

While the meaning of” counterfeit games “of course, we have no idea how these checks are carried out, nor what the definition of Microsoft’s “unauthorized devices.” Stay tuned.
