How do I bypass this, you don't need internet to use an operating system or hardware.

Anybody know of a way to bypass. I'm guessing this is an already preinstalled version of Windows that is going to run telemetry in the background to collect my data. Anybody know of a way around this? Or any methods. And it seems I can't shut down the laptop either.

Have you checked with the support page on Asus or their tech support?
No, but I'm guessing they wont help, they don't care . And I thought maybe somebody here knew a work around method. I could probably open it up and remove the battery if that doesn't void the warranty.

Plus, I don't use wifi, I use hard wired ethernet 6a or whatever ethernet cord. More reliable.

The United States is the only country in the world where it's alright for big monopolies to sell our data, so I'm wondering if someone knew a way around this?
What is the specific problem you need solved here? All you have done to this point is rant randomly. Either provide details or this thread will be deleted accordingly.
