I mean anyone who is/was paying attention saw this coming with how much they’ve been diving into the SAAS business model.

    So like, they saw the Xbox one literally fumble an entire generation of consoles because they planned to have always online even though they cut it due to backlash, and thought “maybe people would like this for their primary computer”? What kind of ass backwards marketing is that? People were absolutely fucking pissed they couldn’t lay around and play whatever shitty games xbox got. Imagine if instead of crappy games it’s literally everything done on the computer that can’t be accomplished if not connected, especially for laptops where you might be somewhere you don’t have a solid connection. Imagine not only losing what you’re currently doing online, but getting booted from the entire os because someone tripped over an ethernet cable.
