Recently, the American man Eric Lundgren was sentenced to 15 months in prison for resale of Windows recovery discs, which has attracted the attention of the industry, and Microsoft has also been criticized. Many foreign media have issued documents in solidarity with Lundgren, and lashed out at Microsoft, believing that its so-called anti-piracy is too much. Microsoft deliberately published a blog post to defend itself.
According to the survey, Lundgren's main business is to recycle electronic waste, but found that the so-called genuine Windows OEM recovery CD that was eliminated is very useful, so it was sold at an ultra-low price of 25 cents (about 1.5 yuan), and a total of 28,000 copies.
Microsoft valued the disc at $25, and Lundgren made a profit of $700,000.
However, Microsoft argues that it has always fully supported the recycling of electronic waste and has recycled millions of computers, but Lundren's case is not a lawsuit brought by Microsoft, but the US federal government.
Microsoft emphasized that Lundgren frequently traveled to China, where he established a complete production line, mass-produced illegal Windows CDs, and even ignored customs warnings, and court evidence revealed that he repeatedly deceived users in his emails, making them think they bought the product. The Windows recovery discs received are genuine, for personal gain.
Microsoft pointed out that Lundgren has admitted that his actions were illegal, and the evidence is beyond doubt.
The following is a series of emails from Lundgren that Microsoft made public:
