It would not be uncommon to see it on a web site like OSOpinion . Throughout our history, humans have taken issues with anything that threatens our liberty in a new way. From leading the Israelite slaves out of Egypt to overthrowing the czars in Russia. From teaching commoners to read, allowing the mass printing of books, allowing people without noble birthright to carry a sword. From regulating the telephone industry to allow affordable access to communication to everyone in the land, to removing the monopoly that forces a singular view of what a computer is.
Eternal vigilance is inherently a personal matter.
We fight these fights not as mercenaries, but in order to preserve our way of life. It is not a difficult thing to understand, then that the battleground is not limited to confronting others. We battle in legal, moral, and physical conditions. We also battle with ourselves to become better for the next fight, or simply because we cannot live with the consequences of not becoming better than we are. So it is this endless pursuit that can drive us in our own way to become smarter, more agreeable, more efficient machines, and more harmonious with the rest of the world.
