Nice work! How recent are the search results and how frequently do they get updated?

Pirating Windows is pretty stupid these days. You can download the official MS ISO from their website, and buy a real key from some subreddits for like $20. The keys they sell are those bulk keys large companies get, their IT dep guy wants to make some extra coin on the side. But they work.

There is some variation depending on where one clicks (on the image that has a link or the actual hyperlink), but Facebook definitely knows in most cases what URLs someone is copying to the clipboard.
