Best website for downloading a pirated copy of Windows? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking to test out Windows, but I don't want to download it without my VPN. I'm trying to use it in a virtual machine with GPU passthrough so I can play all my games. I also obviously don't want to pay for a copy. TIA!

I used to just buy a key from Kinguin or similar. It's usually around 2-3 usd for an OEM key (only usable on 1 computer) and you can pay with PayPal. Never had issues yet.

Next time around I might try this activation script that was mentioned here though.
