Reason 10 To Choose Linux 😍
Linux 🐧 is more private, by default
Own and control your data!
Your operating system won't record your key strokes or dictation, collect lists of devices and their Wi-Fi details, or webcams, printers and anything else plugged in and then send that back to Big Tech HQ.
It's possible to avoid data collection altogether, from the start.
With #Linux YOU decide how to share YOUR data.

It's common to say that the "free" in #FreeSoftware is closer to "free as in speech" than to "free as in beer," and that is true.
However, "free as in speech" only resonates so far with me. To me, Free Software is even closer to free will than to free speech, in the sense that, with Free Software, I have control over my actions in how they relate to that software, i.e. how I have control to decide how to modify it, how to use it, whether to maintain it, whether to deploy it or distribute it.
