  • Can they find out?

    No, not really. The Metadata doesn’t have a “pirated” flag and something like the product key doesn’t get saved. Microsoft themselves probably know due to their telemetry but even they can’t be bothered about it. I would bet that even you send a pirated document to the Microsoft CEO, they wouldn’t notice or even care enough to look for it.

    But as always there is the important rule of “don’t fuck with work stuff, ever”.

    It’s already questionable why she is editing company documents on here private PC without either a dedicated and remotely managed work particition + VPN or an O365 online work account. These documents fall under far stricter data safety regulations and the way it is right now, she is personally liable for any data leaks.



  • You don’t play many competitive multiplayer titles then. Anticheat us always a pain.

    Battleye and Easy Anti Cheat are Linux native, but just cause that’s the case doesn’t mean they will work. Half of the games using them either never had an official linux version or are currently broken again.

    A few games using Xigncode and nProtect work too, but there the number is even lower.

    Punkbuster worked on wine for 5 years but often needs to be installed manually.

    As for the more aggressive ones like Riccochet and Vanguard, you can’t even run them in a VM environment.
