== Konstantinov vs Microsoft lawsuit ==
In 2003, Prokopy Konstantinov tried to pirate Windows The Old Ages, after realizing it was not available in Russia. He tried to contact Microsoft earlier, and they never responded. After seeing the anti-piracy screen, he sued Microsoft for forcing him to abide by foreign law.English translation: I was forced to abide by American law, even though I live in Russia. In fact, no matter where you are, even if you're in Australia, you have to abide by American law, due to Microsoft. Original version: Меня заставили соблюдать американские законы, хотя я живу в России. Фактически, независимо от того, где вы находитесь, даже если вы находитесь в Австралии, вы должны соблюдать американские законы благодаря Microsoft.The result is that Microsoft was forced to pay 1000 dollars in compensation for Konstantinov, and was forced to release a separate version of Windows The Old Ages for non-American markets, in 2004. In this version, any mentions of "USA" have been replaced with the country you chose in the setup, and if you chose a country that allows piracy, the anti-piracy screen doesn't appear.
