Image description: Elon Musk & X @elonmusk • 42m Just bought a new PC laptop and it won’t let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their Al access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too? This is not cool of Microsoft.

      True. There’s still a workaround though. If you open the windows terminal on that screen, disable the internet connection and run “oobe\bypassnro” you will not be forced to log in.
