And yes, "Own Your Platform" extends to computers.

Using a Debian machine is a pain the ass!

But no one can take it from me, and if the debian foundation were to suddenly disappear, I'd have a few dozen alternatives.

Apple, it appears, is forcing signed binaries on all mac users in the name of security (but actually as a profit-making exercise.)

Windows is feeding everything you do to your computer in to their AI, and then forcing their AI on you.

I do not like the current state of linux, but it is the platform I can control.
