I'm an activist for software freedom and I refuse to use non-free software in my life, as a matter of principle. When I'm forced to do so it's certainly very humiliating for me.

Besides, I don't work for a company, but in the public sector (which by the way I think it should not impose non-free software nor secret protocols into the citizens).

"Maybe" it's you the one putting that burden on yourself.

I got that you prefer to use open/free sw, but to feel humiliated by it... As the other commenter mentions, it's over the top...
