I’m more concerned about tech companies being more of a “superuser” on the machine I have paid for and own, than me.

Stallman saw this coming decades ago. And I firmly believe he will be proven right in due time.

Many people saw it coming even before Stallaman.

It would be nice to have a riscV option that doesn’t include these.
