This is exactly why I'm, if possible, wanting to remove the WiFi card from my desktop. Hopefully no way for macrohard to force install win11 if I do that and use that one utility that disables automatic updates. Pretty sure if I did this early enough I'd hopefully be safe. Doesn't make a huge difference when I'm hopefully gonna be updating my desktop before this all goes down, but probably still a good thing to do just in case (especially since I don't have plans of getting rid of my current desktop).
Are you not planning on using the internet ever again?
At least for that device. If I ever need anything for that device that I don't already have, I'd be able to download from a different device and transfer it via thumb drive or if I need to and have space, using an external drive.
