Lol. Dear consumers, please switch over to Linux :)
A vision of the future if everyone is using Linux: to access service X you must use Linux distribution Y by company Z. Lockin achieved, commence the tracking and data harvesting.
Seems easy to do, just ask everyone to boot a new Linux install when they want to use some service.

Just like some colleges require you to boot into Windows to take tests? What's so hard to grasp? People like me who care about choice are not part of the general public who doesn't care. They just want to use service X. Anything that doesn't work with service X is "bad".
