Good evening!

So who of you is thinking about buying the new iphone instead of an
openmoko in case the technical specs really improve(3G, better
resolution)?
If you are willing to exchange your freedom for a few beads, then you don't deserve freedom.

Remember, choices today will reap you rewards tomorrow.

In a strange way it's like the allegory in the Matrix trilogy - the jail is beautiful, comfortable and warm, freedom is harsh, unforgiving and cold.

But in the end, a jail is still a jail and a slave is still a slave.

This ultimately is the choice you must make - stand with the free and die trying or enjoy your jail and die a slave.


Choose.


Note: Yes, it's a bit melodramatic on the surface, but I think we can all start to feel the undertow of a lot of political, social and philosophical movements once again under way globally. I have this uneasy feeling that our choices around freedom just may have much more significant implications that we realize right now.

Apologies for bringing politics into essentially technological forum.
