Considering how countries are trying to push things like Chat Control, I can see them having a hard-on for ideas like this.

"You _must_ use a Cloud computer in order to make sure you're not doing anything illegal."

Amazon et al. will have to pry my tech from my cold, dead hands.

yes, you are an outlier, and one day (presumably <50 years) your hands will be cold and dead, along with your representation in the holdout resistance movement. you must make a bigger impact than standing your (individual) ground

I've given up trying to improve society. They keep voting for the worst idiots they can, buying from the worst exploitative businesses etc. Most people are acting against their own interest and I'm not going to change that.

I'm just trying to isolate myself now from these toxic developments. If society falls into techno fascism after I'm gone, so be it. They wanted it. While I am around I'll shield myself as much as possible by self hosting, custom phone ROMs etc.

Well, I'm almost 40, so I'm hoping I will be dead by then.
