Here's a simple riddle:

  First they came for Alex. Then they came for the frog...
  then they came for the corona and now they come for all the elephants in the room.

This isn't 'doing the right thing' and Google is not your friend.

I hate how terribly locked down all modern operating systems are. I recently started using a PinePhone. It's up to people in tech to show that regular/ordinary people can get away from these mega corps that seek to control everything about the tech we use.

Most people won't put in the effort though.
