minus-squaretreadful@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·26 days agoI’m sure I won’t be very eloquent about it but simply, liberty. Freedom of compute is on par with freedom of thought and expression. Freedom of travel is something else, but I’m sure most people that don’t like being imprisoned can appreciate. Work (as in energy expenditure) enables these freedoms and I think it’s important not to stifle that whenever possible.

minus-squaretreadful@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·25 days agoI just disagree. Computing is expression and in my opinion freedom of travel should be a human right. Even if you add “leisure” to it to bolster your argument.
