HJ - I guess it is, for some, still okay however, to give their money for stuff...
"Two wrongs don't make a right", "It doesn't matter what other people are doing. What matters is what you are doing", "Dare to be different", and so forth. Your strange defense of the status quo would fit perfectly with a defense of slavery, of denying the right to vote based on race or gender, of forbidding Hawaiians from speaking their ancestral languages and performing their ancestral practices, and a hundred other immoral and amoral historical social arrangements that people just went along with because everyone else was doing it.
You know Yak, an old proverb came to mind. "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones."
If you can point to me making excuses and supporting fascistic pedophiliac billionaires in order to save a few bucks, please point them out. You have evidence for your claims right "counselor"?
based solely upon recommendations of some of what people, including yourself, have said are PunaWeb's best long time members suggested.
Again, if you can point to me endorsing the views of these "best long time members" please do so. Otherwise, the proverbs that come to mind are "You will be judged by the company you keep" and "you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious." ;)
Now if YOU were in MY shoes, what do YOU do?
Apparently do like randomq does and make decisions that include political and ethical concerns along with economic considerations. You really do have a choice, despite your best efforts at convincing yourself otherwise.

That is a great resource and good read - thanks for sharing! Don't need new internet provider currently but will kick them some bucks to support the good work they're doing. Along with a fairphone finally being available stateside, the EFF/FOSS vision for the promise of tech and software might still have a chance! (now I just have to wait till I actually need a phone upgrade and a fairphone is available used as second-hand tech keeps those high-energy-investment/high-complexity objects out of the e-waste stream and best matches my HI redemption and thrifted threads :)
