Justin, That's true, but it takes effort for people to either set up a local account or change to one, and very few consumers will do that or have.
Wow, then, problem solved, because it's at least twice as hard to get your Microsoft Account set up, configured, and verified. The sticky point is that very few consumers will KNOW that they can avoid the Microsoft account, and most won't take the time to explore the various options and possibilities. This isn't an effort thing. Setting up a local account is fairly effortless. It's a matter of the option being hidden away, because it is in Microsoft's interest to get everyone using the Windows cloud magic. ...
