The government using the power of the law to invade the privacy of its citizens, against the overwhelming preference of its citizens and international human rights norms... is abusive. It isn't tyranny on its own, but it should be avoided.

Not liking how a company provides a service, when there are other companies providing the same service? That's not tyranny. That's not like a government threatening you with jail or violence.

If you think it is then the time has come, IMO, to log off for a while and get back in touch with the world outside of the internet and tech.

12 years give or take. Now the shoe is on the other foot and people want their rights back, it's delicious. Europe was right all along.
