Is this a thing? i.e: a FOSS Linux system but with pre-configured pirated apps.

Imagine installing Linux and having Microsoft word, Adobe products, or some games pre-installed without pain.

    there used to be a couple recovery distros that used pirated linux tools. I can’t remeber off my head since it was nearly a decade ago now that I’d seen them floating about, they weren’t too popular because most people are just using either MRI and combo fix

      I don’t recall even a linux based recovery distro with that. I remember Hirens had a lot of pirate stuff on it in it’s older versions, but that was a windows based recovery boot disk.
