@mxk Well, what to say ... Ignorance is bliss, perhaps?
The same arguments can be used about any type of politics. If you don't care about the details of the politics, you have not much to complain about when reality hits you.
Your arguments are common. And most users just want "something that works". Everyone gets that. Everyone, even I, want that. But if nobody fights for freedom, the freedom will eventually be taken away from everyone - also those who didn't care to join the fight. That's the reality.
But there must be room for some pragmatism. Sometimes you need to use what works while fighting the good cause. But that is not the same as ignoring there is something to fight for.

@dazo it's just naive to believe that individual decisions could solve regulation issues. And asking people to make major sacrifices to their workflows just for political reasons is an incredibly privileged position.
