No, you are not, because your opinions mostly seem aligned with corporations and you constantly denigrate people that have an alternate opinion, and even ignore facts.
See the analogous desire of people to have TVs that are not "Smart". It used to be that you could ignore "smart" by not giving wifi password, or not connecting cable or not logging in. The smart features encouraged people to use them and the makers, Google and others then "spied" on usage including what was connected / played via HDMI, not just channels watched or online content used.
I'm told that some Android & Fire TVs / Projectors now have no function unless you connect and log in at least once.
But you don't seem to care about privacy, environmental waste (AI LLMs), consumer protection etc. Other people do care and don't support the Corporate and so-called "Libertarian" viewpoint (which is about Corporate freedom, not personal liberty). It is absolutely the thin end of a wedge even if you don't care. It's better than Firefox's adding of "AI", because it's off by default.
You are welcome to have your own opinions, but that doesn't give a freedom to denigrate people wanting privacy, care of the environment and consumer protection. Frankly you rebut opinions in a bullying style rather than state your own.
