From Slashdot:

"Want to validate an unscrupulously obtained copy of Windows? Sign up for the new carrot/stick program being offered by Microsoft. From the article: 'Expanding its Windows Genuine Advantage program, Microsoft will now compensate customers in the United States that unknowingly purchased counterfeit versions of Windows XP with complimentary genuine Windows copies. There is one catch, however: customers must first file a report on the unscrupulous reseller.'"

So when is Microsoft planning on forming a Youth League of America, so that young people can more easily inform on their parents and relatives who violate the Windows EULA?
