Here is what most media is NOT telling you.

1. You only have 10 days to revert back to Windows 10. https://archive.ph/9EeCN

2. Windows 11 will crash CONSTANTLY on non supported hardware, which is why they are now requiring you sign a legal waiver (that no one will read) when you install it on non supported CPU's https://archive.ph/uvsQF "Microsoft says that PCs that didn't meet the requirements had "52% more kernel mode crashes" than PCs that did and that first-party apps crashed 43 percent more often on unsupported hardware."

3. Windows 11 will run SLOWER on non supported hardware. "PCs without processors that support MBEC rely on software emulation called "Restricted User Mode," which does get you the security benefits but affects performance more. Some users who have tested the HVCI feature in Windows 10 on processors without MBEC support have noticed performance reductions of up to 40 percent, though this will depend on the tasks you're doing and the computer you're using."

The big changes are a forced HD encryption and TPM 2.0. What are the goals of these things?

The bitlocker is to make dual booting Linux much harder to use as you can't share data between OS's. Linux got easier to use, so now MS is making it harder.

TPM 2.0 serves many purposes and this is not the first time the industry and MS has tried to make it a requirement. They tried and failed with Windows 8, but the media is now more consolidated than ever and countries security employees (Germany was one) that called MS out are long gone. https://archive.ph/yTb0E

You will be hardware tracked, banned, shadowbanned and a VPN will be useless. If you have things to say on social media? Get them out now.

Outside privacy, It will end piracy. Think of it like hardware Denuvo on steroids that requires proprietary HW solutions to run well. If it is cracked then the CPU time to crack it will make the game run much, much worse. https://archive.ph/CK2cb "Speaking at yesterday's Wedbush Morgan Securities annual Management Access Conference, the Atari founder Nolan Bushnell, suggested that game piracy will soon be a thing of the past thanks to a new chip. "There is a stealth encryption chip called a TPM that is going on the motherboards of most of the computers that are coming out now," he pointed out "What that says is that in the games business we will be able to encrypt with an absolutely verifiable private key in the encryption world-"

How they will sell it to you. Expect more and more hacking in games, with articles from paid off media telling you how TPM 2.0 and Windows 11 adoption can fix this. Gamers will give up their PC to fix a problem that the game companies have every reason to see get worse. In addition Denuvo is getting worse and worse with CPU time and PCGaymer and other sites will tell you that TPM 2.0 will make your games run better because you won't need Denuvo anymore.

If you think the hardware companies are gonna stop this? You are delusional and they were on board from the start. They can now force CPU upgrades due to TPM and not performance anymore. Die shrinks are getting harder and harder. Now you have an artificial limit that forces upgrades. If anything is cracked they will simply move to a stronger TPM. Games will run worse on the old hardware. They could always crack it themselves or provide a solution (would be temporary and probably involve some hardware card) btw to force a CPU upgrade. Planned obsolescence.

Windows 11 is the death of PC Gaming and of you having a personal PC. It's now Microsoft's and their pals that own the thing (see PRISM program).

So what can you do? Nothing, people are too far gone and are arguing over fake counterculture and fake anarchists. Personally if you want to play games for a couple years (the game devs will eventually make TPM 2.0 and a Windows update a requirement) without being bothered with updates and a purposely sabotaged Windows 10 to force upgrades?

Get a VPN or a friend with one and torrent the new long term service branch version of Windows 10 that will be out later this year. Install that and never look back while transitioning to Linux with a dual boot. The future of games under TPM 2.0 will all be complete faggotry anyways. ATM they HAVE to hold back due to piracy. When they have no lost sales you will see SJW agendas reach peak faggotry and the entire industry is replacing the old guard with new employees. If you think Blizzard happened organically then you haven't been paying attention to investments. Google "Soros Blizzard Fintel". Sam Maggs was writing a Communist hero for COD long before the shit with Blizzard went down from the Stat of California. .

When this happens the only thing left will be old games, mods, multiplayer games that studios will release on Linux, but probably still require TPM. At least this way you don't have a stupid bitlocker and you can use another install for everything else.

Enjoy the endgame.
