If you use GNOME, you have inherent trust in that administration as the governing body for the software on your computer. Outside of explicitly checking every line of code and then compiling yourself, there's no way to actually validate what you're truly running on your computer other than that trust.

If you don't use GNOME, why is this interesting to you anyway?

Regardless of where someone stands in this particular conversation, perceived injustice is bad even for those who are only indirectly affected by it.

I guess that most of the injustice we read about in the media is about something that doesn't directly affect us as a reader.

Yet we are affected by it. This is because people tend to want to contribute to a just society. ..so essentially, people tend to dislike injustice.

GTK?

This is some variant of the "you are using your iPhone while criticizing corporations" argument.

Yeah... And this goes to show how misplaced that trust is.

1) As a confirmation and reminder to myself of my decision never to use that stuff, should I ever waver in the future.

2) As an argument to convince others to also avoid it like the fucking bubonic plague.

HTH! (But honestly, that was pretty obvious; how could anyone not see that for oneself?)
