No idea why you're being downvoted. You're completely right. Computing is increasingly centralized in corporation servers. Our computers are becoming appliances. We're no longer in control. We can't run software on them without some corporation's blessing.

Free software presupposes free general purpose computers. It assumes we can write software and run it on our devices. What is the point of free software if we can't run it because the corporation that actually owns the keys to the machine won't sign off on it?
