At the very least, hopefully it will stop the inexperienced pirates. Professionals seem to be able to do whatever they want, in this regard. It is unfortunate, but piracy will always be here, to some degree.

I don't think this will affect those who use the SLIC loaders, they've been in use since Vista and MS has not stopped those at all.

Those who have use the WAT crack or hack will probably have problems though.

What is curious about this is that the process is voluntary, and you can remove the update if you wish. That's what Mr. Williams said in his report. If they are so serious about this issue, why announce to the world it's voluntary? Every pirate that has the least bit of intelligence will refuse the update, if they have read this report.
