I don't like the law, but I don't like the phrase "It's illegal to use Linux in the state of California" more. Systemd is not a political lobbying organization, they're a software organization and its their job to make legally compliant software.

We need to fight these laws, but being mad at Systemd isn't the solution since they aren't the culprit.
