This right on. Reading a lot of the comments here, I think people have already given up that freedom and just hope that no one makes them see what they've done. This discussion has certainly opened my eyes in regards to this. One freedom is always to go to a country which has different laws. Another freedom is to develop computers, OSes and networking protocols that better provide freedom. It seems that many are so used to building on frameworks that have inherent issues that they forget their are choices, basic choices, that still have to be made every day.
