I've always liked 3399 because of the puny looking gun and how the monster disintegrates. It looks like someone knows what a failing GPU looks like.

Exactly. It's the principle of the matter.
Which is exactly what I tell people when I'm told Inshould somehow just rollover and accept that my government spies on me.
Fuck that.
I'm an adult. I'm not doing anything illegal. Privacy is a right. Butt out.

Yes. As embellished by Jimbo.

Exactly. And the fact that, in some governments, you might be breaking the law without knowing it. For example, I know there are people that consider the united states america (stet!) to be relatively free, but I read somewhere that there are 10,000 things you could be doing that are illegal (I think that article was about how you shouldn't ever talk to the police, because they'll find something you "confessed" to). If you haven't read and completely understood the entirety of the written laws of the government that might force itself onto you, you can't be sure that you're not breaking it's laws. And then there are governments that outlaw some things that affect only the "perpetrators" (prostitution, drugs, etc).

Well, it's not quite that simple. For instance, the mis-use of drugs can lead to self-harm which imposes a cost on the society which then picks you up and cares for you (though admittedly some don't do all that much in that regard).

Not to mention the human trafficking concerns surrounding prostitution; or the way many of them are coerced into it, even without being transported across the continent.
