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.

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)
