Wow Microsoft is rather slow in the head to think someone buying a game has no right to play it... i thought it was due to the fact i had to "double sign in" due to my browser settings getting in the way. i usually just go on YouTube and a few wiki for games yet the stat in the shield icon says "Protections dashboard: 38,246 Blocked" from going on less than 100 sites and most likely closer to 30... so the protection stays on naturally.
if they want to stop bot accounts, they could at least wait that they do something... that is like shooting the messenger before he delivers the message, if the message was peace, you would never know.
anyhow i wonder if i can just sign in, start the game and then unplug my internet cable... (i never leave it plugged in if i don't need it, i hate the flashing lights that don't even stop when the PC is OFF...)
