Certificates on Windows 11 are absolute trash. They removed the ability to impersonate accounts by only allowing a pin certificate. The problem is there used to be a mechanism to login by username and password, but its gone now. So if you're pin cert doesnt work, there is no way to impersonate the cert anymore or emulate a seperate account. What retard thought this was a good idea...

Whatever it is, it's obvious that they are doing everything possible to track users. This is just the beginning. In the end you will have to give them your documents in order to install Windows.

In plain English, it sounds like with Windows 11 your install has a built-in master identity that can't be hidden or changed, so everything can tie back to that when tracking you. A step towards de-anonymizing all use of computers.
