He didn’t comply, he collaborated. It won’t deter anyone but pro fascist programmers from developing for Linux. Your defence of the indefensible says a lot about you, too.

You should re-read what you wrote and see why it applies.

Well, I’m not in a lynch mob. So there’s that.

That is not the point and you know it.

It is not a hit piece. No call to action was stated.

Ah, but this time the government wants it to be able to be queried so that applications and web sites can decide what to do with you. That’s the difference.

Not true. Because the stated purpose of the laws at play is to enable that to be queried so that sites can decide what is appropriate for you to see.

Your argument is an informal fallacy called Whataboutism.

I invite you to educate yourself by reading about it on Wikipedia

What you are really asking is how far will people go to defend freedom? Look at history, my friend.

Why, because they throw everything in there like a jello salad?

Another collaborator, “just following orders.”

Defenders and writers of the evil code are the ones being targeted. You have this backwards and need a mirror.

THIS! Those that do obey in advance, especially trying to help impose it on the rest of us, are collaborators!!! Treat them as such!

Those writing boot licking compliance are NOT your friends.

Words of a collaborator. Your words betray you, revealing what kind of person you are and what your goal is. The kind who would send ICE to your neighbour, the kind we don’t let baby sit, the office backstabber, the licker of boots to fascist regimes. Or a troll.

How about you do so first, you who would defend such vile actions.

No

Collaborator!

NO!

You are trying to protect the villain in the story.
