Product keys are still necessary for security reasons. We cant compromise on authentication just for convenience. Prioritizing safety over ease of access is crucial in the tech world.

So, I was just thinking, why do we even need product keys in the first place? Cant software companies come up with a better way to protect their products without inconveniencing users? Just a thought...

Product keys are necessary to protect the hard work and investment that software companies put into developing their products. Without them, piracy would run rampant, leading to lost revenue and potential job cuts within these companies. Its a necessary evil for the industry to thrive.
