Notes from a video + weaving best bits together a bit so it's mixed but hopefully shows some good notes (together or as paragraphs)...

It's about the necessity to opt-out of the massive infrastructure or have nice choices and not be at corporations total whim (as an individual or local gov itself).
To have our own choice and NOT BE DEPERSONALISED) is to be more sovereign.

Slight tangent but similar

When your Operating System governs your locality's decision-making... then this is becoming more powerful than your Government or everyone following their ways reflect their ineffectiveness in this (like just having always-online operating systems) just because it's easier (funded) or less technical (easy install)

Linux (LinuxMint / Debian) install still needs tech-literate people though it seems a good choice.

The above does seem hard if you're trying to manage masses of people and somewhat need to standardise / shepherd... but I guess the line of ignorance is just everyone following nobody or one big corporation as the shepherd itself (rather than individuality or intelligence) so corps are clearer and better funded.... which is arguably what government is supposed to be like Microsoft represented back in the day paving the way for word processing and computer operating systems for the layman / average person... (even if questionably so if you consider Linux still needs tech-level help to setup or not get stuck whereas windows gets you in point and click style.... I could be wrong on this!)

SUMMARY:
The above paragraphs help us see why people go for big corps (as a gov trying to standardise / depersonalise everything or gov just going with big corps)

I skimmed of this from a video so it's mixed but hopefully shows some good notes (together or as paragraphs)
Linux Mint should ditch Ubuntu and here's why (a Chris Were talk)
