No, it sounds like a good reason for anti-trust regulators to make an injunction to stop Google from doing it.

It's time for this fantasy bullshit notion that boycotts are worth a damn to end. In reality, it's nothing but pro-corporate propaganda designed to make people think they're "fighting the man" or whatever when they're actually completely ineffective.

Now, don't get me wrong: by all means, please feel free to quit using Google's shit! That's 100% a good thing and I fully encourage it! Just don't delude yourself into thinking it represents even the slightest shred of a solution to the systemic problem Google's anticompetitive strategies represent.

Regulars are too busy trying to get rid of encryption. A double edged sword in the situation with Google's drm

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
