    Technology and ethics and politics are not airgapped magically distinct things. Pretending that they are is a strategic political choice you are actively making.

      Ok. I’m a bad person because I enjoy using a given browser. I get that.

      Another one that goes on my ignore list. Bye.

        If that’s what you feel is the case if you don’t separate politics from technology then that sounds like a personal problem to address.

          The point is that pretending there is no connection when there is clearly a huge relevance here is massive.
