Haven't used windows 11, but there were times when 999999999 was a valid cdkey and there were times when you had to activate the OS with Microsoft servers

Microsoft is WAY more concerned with companies selling PCs with illegitimate copies of windows than it is with people having illegitimate copies.

So as long as Windows 11 shows "HACKED BY GONZO, TOTALLY NOT LEGIT" they're fine with it.
