Could you please stop posting flamebait and snark? Your account has unfortunately been doing this repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.
If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
You're of course welcome to make your substantive points more thoughtfully.
You know what dang, I'll genuinely consider it.
I truly believe that we'll see a world where everything requires remote attestation and corporate approved devices within the next few years. It's a nightmare scenario for me and I consider it inevitable. I just don't have much more than sad cynicism left since it seems to become worse every day.
Your genuine consideration is appreciated!
I hear you about this issue (corporate control over devices, let's call it) and of course a large segment of the community agrees with you. Howwever, the moderation point here isn't about that; it's about a style of commenting that we're trying to avoid here. Your account has been posting in that style on unrelated issues too, so I think this is independent of the specific content.
