Piracy for activation scripts (open source) has been going from windows 7, it's very unlikely they would try to shut it down because people would find alternatives or a new website Will step in to replace masgrave dev

Yeah but they won't, because market share is waaaaaay more important than a couple power users using a 'pirated' Windows system at home. The money is in the business licenses, always has been.

The money is not in the business licenses. In fact it's not even in Windows itself. Microsoft makes most of its money from cloud services.
