Tying your cause to "anti-tech" is a great way to doom yourself to irrelevance. The vast majority of people won't ever side with you.

We techies know we can have tech and freedom too, and that the fight is over good tech, not no tech. Everyone else always picks convenience over privacy and freedom.

The users just should use our tech responsibly.
