But windows patches are free. Even if you are using an illegal copy of windows, you can still manually download and install the patches. It's Microsoft Update where they mostly have the genuine windows verification code. Even Redhat forces you to pay subscriptions for their autoupdate management stuff.

But the real vulnerability is that Windows can be more secure if it has the patches. If Linux for example restricted it's seurity patches to only licensed users they would have the same problem. I'm not saying either that MS should be compelled to distribute any upgrades for free. Just secutiry fixes.
