/r/linux is the most ridiculously paranoid forum I've seen.

You have to go there to see it for yourself. Imagine the way that HN is paranoid of the US government, but then double that and apply it to Microsoft, which makes even less sense. To them, MS is the boogeyman that will stop at nothing to prevent them from being the glorious 1% that doesn't use Windows. It's still the 90's on /r/linux, in many many ways.

Yea but sometimes you need a group of extreme people to offset the other extreme you get with locked bootloaders etc. Not saying they are always right, but I am happy we still have people around with 0 trust in MS.
