Windows 11 comes in many flavors. But mostly Enterprise and consumer (Home, and Pro). If you have Enterprise your company pays a subscription for the ability to control and mostly to turn off most of the bullshit telemetry and ads. Consumer versions are pretty much just ad supported OSs. Yep, even if you paid for it. Ads are everywhere.

Enterprise / Pro don't need subscriptions. There are subscriptions, but you can also purchase a straight up license

Didn't know that, do you know of a link to where I can buy a license?
