For anyone reading this that has to install Windows, when you get to the point where it asks you to log into a Microsoft account, hit shift+F10, type oobe\bypassnro into the command prompt and after it reboots select "I don't have an account"...

I would still maintain that Linux is a better option though.

Yeah but with Linux you have to open up a terminal and input cryptic commands someone on the internet gave you in order to stop the distro from spying on you... /s

This is where you lost me. Literally no one thinks this. Even the most anti-Linux folks on the planet don't pretend Linux spies on you more than Microsoft...

I don't think it's that simple anymore, I had to disconnect from the internet and other shenanigans

Wasn't that method patched out of the installer?

Nope, it still there

No. Still needed in smaller business environments if you're onboarding a new machine.
