Is Microsoft condoning Windows Piracy?
 
It's hard to tell people not to pirate Windows on one hand while in the other giving pirates free legitimate upgrades to Windows 10.

Seems the people paying for Windows are stupid- just pirate it and they'll take care of you.

Are we suckers for paying for Windows?

i believe piracy is wrong. It may be easy to pirate something, but that does not make it not wrong.

They clarified, the pirates will still be running unlicensed windows 10, but running windows 10.

Also, I think the upgrade is free only for a period of time. I believe everyone will have to pay for it after that period ends.
