So, are people picking their battles by practically bullying others into thinking they're wrong and outdated? They could simply ignore people talking about phone jacks, but they don't. They're not picking battles. They're actively fighting, and on the corps' side.

Also, there's always a bigger battle. If we think like this, no one will ever do anything. Corporations don't go all in. They take things away from us one small step at a time, and people allow it, because they're always small things, but just like boiling frogs, we will end up into a cyberpunk era.
