    So what will happen after expiration date is over? Simple: your driver will be uninstalled automatically and you will be enforced to visit the site and get a new driver or a new INF file.

    It was an April Fools joke...

    All they did was add ExpireDate to one of the ini files to make it look real. Even if that line was in there, it wouldn't actually do anything unless auto expiring was something built into the nvidia drivers. Just having those words in the ini file won't do anything.
