[DDFF] Free and public welfare DD mirror distribution site

first
my english is not very good
I use Google Translate
Please forgive me if there are any inaccuracies.

Many of my friends have purchased VPS in Europe and the United States.
However, the merchant does not provide a Windows system (but the TOS indicates that Windows can be installed)
If you use iKVM or IPMI, etc.
Install by mounting the ISO image
will find
There is a huge difference between the local network in China and the VPS network.
As a result, many people are unable to install through network mounting.
so
This resulted in the use of DD installation to achieve the goal.

However
Many DD mirrors
either private
Or mixed with backdoor Trojans

so
I decided to make a public welfare DD mirror distribution website
To facilitate people around the world to use DD technology
Convenient installation system


website:

English
https://ddff.pro/index_en.php
Chinese
https://ddff.pro/index.php


illustrate:

The mirror images are all from [秋水逸冰]
Please select the nearest node according to the location of your DD machine.
This site is purely for public benefit and there is no charge.
Nodes are sponsored by merchants/netizens
Thanks


ps:

If you have idle machines and are willing to provide distribution nodes, please contact me
At the same time, your text advertisement can be placed behind the provided node [can be your website/aff/...]

    Do I need a license key if I DD these windows ?

    I am currently traveling in mostly remote areas until sometime in April 2024. Consequently DM's sent to me will go unanswered during this time.

    Yes, you need to activate it yourself
    Due to copyright reasons, it is impossible to provide activated systems
    Therefore, you need to activate the system yourself

    Distribution of Windows ISO is prohibited, or something has changed since i took my Microsoft sales license? (~2017)

    The installation ISO is protected by the same copyright clauses as the OS itself, as it contains the Windows OS.

    Also, BYOS Windows is BSHIT marketing, that one also in not legal in Microsoft eyes, except some Server Variants ( Data-center )

    Now, If I am mistaking, please correct me. I do understand your frustration on this, but even those who do the BYOSHIT, usually indulge that on Performance VPS, running Windows OS on a 1 vCPU and 2 GB ram will keep the VPS at 100% all time.

    If i did not get your point, nudge me will ya :)

    EDIT:

    @govht said: However, the merchant does not provide a Windows system (but the TOS indicates that Windows can be installed)

    That is why he does not provide, as he does not want to be responsible for the copyright theft. It passes the liability to the customer, as by TOS he rented out a Virtual PC to the customer, and that customer by TOS is responsible for all the shit he/she/it put on it.

    The system itself is not activated
    Requires user activation
    Of course, other risks cannot be ruled out. I will try my best.
    Thanks

    I didn’t make the DD image myself
    but
    I used a mirror source recognized by the circle (the website has detailed instructions that the mirror comes from others)
    So
    This involves an issue of trust
    If users trust it, please use it directly
    If you don’t trust it, don’t use it
    I am just distributing
    Users themselves need to have the ability to consider risks
    Thanks

    I'm just picturing the scene:

    It's not my product officer. I was just distributing it.

    right
    You can understand it this way
    At least that's what I think
    For example:
    Someone else made a cake, which was also free.
    I'll give it to those in need.
    But the cake is poisonous inside.
    The person who ate the cake was poisoned.
    But I have no motive for committing a crime.
    The person who ate the cake did not check whether the cake was poisonous.
    I think
    This is the case

    But I think it's not wrong
    I just pass things on to people in need
    I'm just a porter
    I don't make any money from this either
    It even requires effort (distribution nodes, time and energy, etc.)

    Problem is the ingredients of the cake are not yours to make the product free in the first place.

    Either way, the project looks nice, but I will not touch MSFT shit, not even with a stick.

    As for what will happen to MSFT?
    I can't predict either
    But for now
    For users in certain countries/regions
    He's fine

    At least there is demand
    and i can provide
    I think it's been very successful

    Thank you again for your attention and support for this project
    Thanks
