I just started watching the Cory Doctorow talk and he used the expression "the war on general purpose computing", which I liked a lot.

Cory's talk has got me excited. De-Americanisation of the internet sounds like a bright future. Europe needs to grow and break free of the chains.
That's actually the name of a talk he used to give. Very well done, but it didn't actually come true the way he thought it would.
The war is not over, and the side of general purpose computing is still slowly losing.
