It’s for sure that’s all they’re doing.

Motorola and Google made a big deal about building a factory to do actual assembly in North Texas, and it still failed within a year.

If HTC/ trump were doing anything close to that they’d be screaming it from the hilltops.

It won’t help, Office relies on being digitally signed before it will run, and Microsoft is intentionally not renewing the certificate in order to force people off these older perpetual licenses.

It should be illegal to pull this kind of digital theft from people who paid for the software. No one who paid for this was ever told their access was time limited.
