Microsoft

I just received a message from Microsoft, that to me is "chilling". My wife (a month or so ago) purchased a new HP computer with either Microsoft Windows 10, 11 and in order to use the Excel, Word, etc. "stuff" I must register and they will give me one year access for "free', after 1 year I'm not clear what transpires.

That's just the beginning, the "new" message is about obtaining a license/agreement to use Microsoft and the sum is: if you don't sign, all Microsoft applications will be discontinued. If you agree, then they have the right to "police" your computer to see if any violations of the agreement have occurred, if so they will grab all your stuff, shut down all Microsoft applications, etc.

I'm hoping this doesn't apply to all my older computers, because they are Microsoft driven. Anyone encounter this new agreement?

I just received this new message/agreement today, via e-mail from Microsoft. This "new" agreement goes into effect Aug. 15th.
