Massgrave is a tool that can create legit (oem) keys for windows and office out of thin air*

it’s not literally creating them from nothing, it’s using a system Ms themselves run to get working keys. Evidently they don’t have a huge problem with it.

Turns out the powershell step is enough to get 97% of users to shell out cash.

And also, the biggest source of revenue is institutions who either will pay for the enterprise license, or can be sued for a good payday if they try to pirate.

I would pay to not use PowerShell, but I'm a Linux user so I don't need to :)

It literally easier to crack

It is not easier for almost every human on the planet.
