You're right, kansface. But I'm not a U.S. citizen, so political action isn't really a practical option. Also, it is arguably wrong to interfere in the political machinations of a foreign democratic country, no matter how irrationally that other country is careening.

While you're right about binaries, there is nothing impractical about compiling things (cf ports tree).

Open Source is something that works now, today, here. It's not a great solution -- see above -- but like democracy, it might be the best we've got. (Or in this case, got left.)
