> This makes it sound like "some people will trade decency for items that they see as nicer". That is plain sinister.

I don't see how it's sinister at all to say that. I hate Windows, but I use it because I no longer have access to macOS, and nothing works on Linux. Am I sinister for "voting" for Windows even though it lacks decency? It is currently the least bad option for me, that is all. The value in having a working computer is greater than the value in perpetually stressing myself out over whether things are free and libre or not.

Ensuring the absolute purity of my personal supply chain is too much of a pathetic chore for me to want to care about. I really, really do not care if that nice Tesla I may buy in 10 years tracks my every move, receives random OTA updates, makes me pay a subscription fee to use the hardware that's already installed in the vehicle, and so on. What if I just wanted a nice EV and nobody else does it right?? What am I going to do, buy a Rivian instead?
