“You know what I’m gonna do about this? Nothing! … So what I’m gonna do is piss and moan like an impotent jerk, and then bend over and take it up the tailpipe!” – users who don’t have the self-respect to switch to Linux

Android: It’s based on Linux, except it replaces any and all of the things that make Linux worth using, with Google, and runs it on hardware so proprietary, closed, encrypted and nefarious nothing the OS does can be plausibly trusted anyway.

Yeah, I’ve seen the same song and dance for the last 20 years. At this point I just shrug whenever I hear Windows users complain about their shitty OS.

Using a “shitty” OS is forgiveable. Using an actively hostile OS, one that acts in the corporation’s interest at the expense of the user’s, is incomprehensibly insane.
