“Trust” as in: trust it enough to run it on your machine.

(And assuming that you can’t understand code yourself)

    I choose not to do business with anyone who’s too vocal about their political disagreements. I’m paying you for your services not your opinion so shut up!

      I used to feel this way but I need more nuance now.

      If I had a global (or national, or statewide, or even citywide) platform of any kind, and there were momentous things happening in the world that I felt were wrong, and that I felt needed more awareness, how could I not use my platform?

      I used to be so sick of celebrities with their political statements until one day that hit me. How could you, in good conscience (and this is true even of opinions I don’t agree with) find yourself with millions of people willing to listen to you, how could you not use your platform if you feel strongly enough that there is a moral or ethical obligation to speak up?
