I spoof my user agent on Linux and appears as a Windows user to websites. So I'm actually contributing to the Windows stat.

To each their own. Ideally no company should have those data that can be used for spying by any government. But if I have to choose, I personally fear government overreach more than anything else. We can agree to disagree here.
so war hasn't broken out, what's your point? Last time I checked China still isn't able to send agents to my house to arrest me, but folks here are getting misreported for CSAM to the feds by google scanning their pictures without consent.
I'm glad that you brought up the problem of foreign propaganda. I firmly believe the government shouldn't be there to tell me what kind of views I can and cannot see. Some exceptions already exist such as blatant calls for violence which we already have clear guidelines on. Other than that, government is in no place to regulate speech. What's the point of beating Russia and China when we become just like them?
Well I don't use TikTok and couldn't care less if they get banned. If you actually read the bills that's getting passed like the RESTRICT act in the US you'd realize it's not about banning TikTok and it has numerous vague and concerning clauses that infringes on your privacy. My opinion is always have better privacy laws and enforce it equally on all companies. When my government blatantly tries to steal more of my data and pretend they're actually doing me a favor I'd rather the foreign adversary have it for free.
This is actually what I wanted to say to a lot of people. During peace times, allowing a foreign adversary stealing your data is a lot less damaging to your personal freedoms than your own government stealing your data. We need to be wary every time when our own government tries to tries to introduces surveillance laws under the disguise of "national security".
I do this at gas stations when there's a line at the right turn lane
librewolf is hardened firefox out of the box. If you want to harden firefox yourself or use user.js from arkenfox you can achieve the same end result.

Except this is shopify's customer's data and not their own so the CRA should have to obtain a warrant before they can do that. If they're allowed have free access to customer data just because it's tax related then there's nothing stopping law enforcement agencies to bypass the court system and obtaining any customer data on a massive scale, since they can always make up bogus reasons like "fighting crimes" or "monitor terrorist activities".
Not at all. RHEL is still the standard in my field of work and I'm not seeing that going away any time soon. So it makes sense for me to stay in the ecosystem for career development. If I see any evidence of future changes in Fedora that compromises privacy or security I might change my mind.
