    Even Windows is KYC’d by default as consumer Windows generally requires an MS account now and setting up an MS account requires your DOB and may some day even require a face scan or your ID, and in addition there’s been active attempts to restrict Linux and BSD although the two laws of which I speak in Cali and Colorado ultimately exempted FOSS from their scope, and as for the Fediverse, the FBI raided a Mastodon server a while back so even that isn’t entirely safe, and Windows 365 is facilitating thin clients connected to rented servers, plus the ability to build a PC is actively being pushed out of reach of everyone who isn’t rich.
