    Microsoft is only a small part of the problem

    The real problem is the cellphone market: people literally can’t live without a cellphone anymore. Iin many countries, a cellphone is an absolute necessity to do basic things like banking or dealing with the administration. And virtually all cellphones are under the control, and under the heavy surveillance of two American Big Data monopolies.

    That means many countries have virtually surrendered their sovereignty to broligarchs from a country that is well on its way to becoming a full-blown fascist state because of those damn miniature surveillance devices that virtually nobody can live without anymore.

    Let me rephrase this in blunter terms: ALL IT TAKES IS ONE WORD FROM TRUMP TO ORDER GOOGLE AND APPLE TO CRIPPLE A COUNTRY’S INFRASTRUCTURE!

    This has been scaring me for a very long time and I just don’t understand how it’s never seemed to scare any elected officials in any country that proclaims to care about the sovereignty of their nation.
