Windows users all around the world are tad bit nervous as some troubling news has come up regarding Microsoft’s new unified agreement. What this could mean for the end user is that Microsoft can scan your system for pirated software and block them. That’s all fine dandy as we are not promoting software piracy here, but this could also have dire consequences on the hardware front as well.

"We may automatically check your version of the software and download software updates or configuration changes, including those that prevent you from accessing the Services, playing counterfeit games, or using unauthorized hardware peripheral devices. You may also be required to update the software to continue using the Services"

So what does this mean for us the end users? What determines what hardware is considered Unauthorized? Hopefully the boys and girls over at Redmond will clear this matter up soon. With over 53 million Windows 10 installs recorded so far, you can understand why a lot of people are freaking out right now.
