We asked Microsoft if a Copilot key would be required on OEMPCs going forward;[…] it expects Copilot keys to be required on Windows 11 keyboards “over time.” Microsoft often imposes some additional hardware requirements on major PC makers that sell Windows on their devices[…].
From what I understand, this either means that this will only affect laptops and similar devices, or that they want to force companies that sell windows PCs to sign a contract disallowing them from selling keyboards without a copilot key, with or without a PC.
I think (hope?) they mean the former.
Fuck that, and fuck you, Microsoft
