No it makes sense since some keys are valid until discovered stolen.
They got what they want for the most part, millions of machines have
called home and announced their keys which is a reconnaissance mission.
Next step would be the version that disables systems as keys are
blacklisted rather than wait for a major service pack to blacklist
batches of keys as with the SP2/FCKGW key.
It funny how a billion dollar company is so worried about losses from
piracy. Just as funny as that other OS company that is so afraid of
losses that they force you to use their overpriced hardware to have
their OS.

How many times does one change their OS on a machine from a legal
version to an illegal version?
