Sadly it's more difficult to turn computers, websites, tech services, and operating systems upside down.
It's a nice idea for small physical products but it would also be nice to have a movement to boycott and give alternatives to American tech services.
Challenge accepted!

I'm almost there! Gonna install a new OS on my phone in the weekend, then I'm completely murica free.
Next step: convincing and helping others
Edit: except my payment cards, although I try to use my phone whenever I can (which still uses SWIFT, I guess)

That's the idea! Although I also found one other OS that looks cool, but the name escapes me rn.
