The author of the book 'digital vegan', the most impactful thing I've read in at least a year, responded to my post. I'm fulfilled :)
You did something great with that book. Last time I recommended it I said something like "If you were impacted by Stallman or Lanier, this Farnell is deeper, more philosophical, and at the same time more applicable. It solves a real problem that _everybody_ has." They look at me with Dali-like eyes-wide-open :)
