I daily drive Fedora because RHEL is what my industry uses and it's good to stay on top of the technology.

I use all three. I have Windows on one of my machines that I use occasionally for gaming. I use Macs for work since that's what all my corporate machines comes with and I daily drive Linux and use it for all my home servers.
Another main reason why I took off my hat back then was because I was a broke college kid with garbage internet speed and my only computer was a laptop. Torrenting shows sometimes means I need to have my laptop on for days. Now I have an entire homelab setup with a dedicated VM on one of my servers for torrenting and I can afford fast internet. I was pleasantly surprised how efficiently I can torrent when I got back sailing recently.
They already do this. I was offered to plug some kind of monitoring device into my car for a period of time to determine my driving behavior for potential lower rates. I went for higher rates.
For me it's just more power efficient to run a VM on my TrueNAS for this purpose if I need to download very large files over night. It also speeds up file transfer / storage.
As someone who works in the tech industry. I can tell you people here are not tech illiterate, but most just dgaf about privacy when they can trade it in for convenience. That's why most of them are okay with designing apps that have zero respect to user privacy and they see nothing wrong with it.
Some malicious users do use VPNs to send spams and many websites automatically bans these IPs. Normally switching to a different VPN server will resolve the issue.
Donated $20 to GrapheneOS when I first installed it. $5/mo to Signal. Local charities in my hometown.
I wouldn't call going from mad profits to okay profits a sign of downfall. Having decentralized technology doesn't mean decentralization will actually happen. For instance look at E-mail. It is technically a decentralized service, but most people still uses services provided by big tech vs operating their own servers. Such a system does give you more choices, but don't expect this future will be without big tech.
replying to you on lemmy discussing perfectly legal topics, so I have the it pointed to a node in my city for best performance
If you're not using the wifi functionality perhaps putting the device in a Faraday cage would prevent anyone from accessing it.

No matter which side you're on. If you see any politician today as terrible or any government policies as tyrannical then you should think twice about only allowing the government to own all the guns.
