I smell the “all Linux users are hackers” argument approaching:
If you don't use an OS with mandatory ID you're a terrorist
We are. And that's completely legal
It is the necessary precondition to the "anyone with greater than x FLOPS in their own home is a terrorist" argument.
Who would have more than 1 flop at home? Hackers and Communists obviously
