Ok, then let's assume that the European Court of Human Rights has been corrupted by evil forces from... erm... Mars... that want to ... erm... poison the planet by giving EU citizens control over their hardware and personal data. Or something?

Less naive, I guess.

I'm not playing your "sore losers" game. You are implying that all there is left to fight about is which mega corporations shall be in control of your personal rights.

Fine, if that's what you want.

I want to be in control of my data, and to be in control of the hardware I own.

This doesn't limit your freedom to have Musk, Google, Apple or whoever control your hardware. Give them your private keys. Give them your brain. All your choice and fine for me.

But my hardware stays my hardware, my freedom stays my freedom, and my data stays my data :)
