  • I am no longer sure that is where it hurts the most, for these mega rich dickheads you gotta go after their ego.

    I don’t mind having some wealthy people in the world, what I do mind is them ruining shit for others.

    If Elon decided to just buy an island and retreat from the world at large (which will never happen), I wouldn’t give a shit if he kept all the money he made, he would at least stop making the world a worse place for as many people.

    Same goes for Trump, Bezos, Zuckerberg or any other person with insane levels of wealth.

    They can keep all of it, just go away and stop making other people miserable.

    At this point, that would be enough.

    If they absolutely could not stop working, then they should only be allowed to work on how to actually get rid of the great garbage patch and micro plastics in the sea in general.

    They have the resources and contacts to make shit happen.












  • IT guy here, Microsoft has extensive remote management tools.

    Lets look at Microsoft Intune

    Intune/Autopilot - This is Microsoft’s device management portal, this allows IT admins to remotely manage Windows 10/11 computers, and includes the ability to remotely erase a computer. Autopilot is a way to assign computers to a company so that when you you boot the computer it will only allow the Windows installer to be logged on to using an account from the company that registered it.

    It is even possible to set a bios password through Intune remotely.

    Microsoft could easily trigger a wipe of any computer that is connected to their cloud, and then make sure it could only be logged on to by the person it is registered to.

    They could also change the password/mfa settings, and lock the UEFI

    Effectively locking you out of your computer.

    This can all be done through existing Microsoft systems, and I expect that Microsoft either manage all private Windows 11 computers logged in with a Microsoft account in a special instance of Intune or a separate but similar system with similar capabillities.

    Now, this means that Microsoft does have the tools to brick your computer for Windows use.
