About ten years before Google was on Earth someone put a poster on our corridor of the University building: *Microsoft free area*. We all were proud about that. But at that point nobody knew what should come later on. In the 80ties Germany planned a nationwide census to happen once in a decade. I joined the resistance against it. From today's point of view this is absolutely ridiculous. Each day people sell much more sensitive data to many powerful companies and it is much less clear how they deal with your data. It has become really hard to refuse all the things you would like to and you are forced to make exceptions. Until Corona I refused to use a smartphone. Now I use my employer's iPhone. But I use it less than 2 minutes a day (most of that 2FA and just WiFi). The principal question is: What is worth making an exception? I think Sage is worth it! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
