2/2Bitcoin fixed the money issue to an extent, but also has led to extreme #repression.
We cannot underestimate the attacks that various FOSS persons have endured, especially since #bitcoin's creation. It really is a #SilentWar against #computing. Removal of #DVDDrives a part of it in our view.
Corporate state race to fight FOSS hard. In #Australia our NBN is now VDSL2 (sans any FOSS drivers!).
No #RMS denegration, pls.

Burn a DVD for a friend with cool stuff on it as a belated #Christmas gift.
Draw a fun picture on it.
Ask them to treasure it.
Be almost too #romantic about it.

Computing? The loss of DVD drives, the patent on bluray, the dependence on cloud storage.Solutions: don't buy computers without #DVDDrives, ignore #Bluray patents (especially in end times), teach linux/encryption.
The Internet? CDNs and reverseProxies that spy on people's full browsing experience, including passwords. A: I2P, teach privacy.
Technology? In hands of CAGEFAM. A: Block CAGEFAM at Network level until they sell IPAddresses and only have 1M remaining. Requires many blockers.

Over past several months we've realised that the whole notion of #computing and managing your own data is under threat.
The loss of the #DVDDrives in computers…
The #CloudFlare-will-run-#webBrowser-in-#theCloud-and-give-you-a-remote-view-of-what-it-might-see problem.
The wholesale takeover of #cloudStorage…
Its **our collective duty** to stop it, and to help other to end the trend, by demanding better.
Educate. #Educate. Educate.
Don't let them break computing because #bitcoinWar.

This! ^^^ and #waterproofing. They must shoot that #ad of people swimming and diving with their latest #shartPhone.Oh and which phones are getting smaller? Over past several years all the thin #phones are designed to be so large they scarcely fit in a #pocket, slip out, and break, or bend.
We say revive #Minis. Its ironic but they had #replaceableBatteries too.
(In a somewhat related note, we abhor the push to remove #DVD Drives from #computers.)

What is it with people who have computers without #DVD drives?
Is there something wrong with them?
