I’m one of those car-less people, and I much appreciate having the infrastructure of roads to cycle on. Some highways even have a cycling lane. Everyone who eats uses that infra.

If you think that bicycle roads require the same maintenance ad highways for 35 tons trucks, then good for you.

Belgium

Who is going to pressure any Belgian government to release free software? Is that a constitutional right?

To answer to your other comment

the non-gratis factor makes it unsuitable as a reason for rationalizing a Tor block

Didn't you read what I said in that comment? Mullvad browser is free, for everyone, no need to use Mullvad VPN.

A proper analogy would be if there are public-funded fireworks, but you’re arbitrarily blocked from the viewing area for not having a Facebook account.

  • I can't afford a car, I can't use the roads, still I pay for it with my taxes
  • I can't afford a bike/I'm disabled and can't use a bike, still I pay for those with my taxes
  • I can't have children, still I pay for public education
  • I can't afford a smartphone, even based on free software, I can't use this app still I pay for it with my taxes

They do not give up their human rights to have equal access to public healthcare resources

Remembering a 3 digit number is now a public healthcare resources

If someone chooses to live in country, they accept the consequences of travel.

Why? Why should someone accept the consequence of travel more than using a burner email for a Google account?

I don’t see what you mean. If you can’t transfer money to certain regions, that’s a broken infrastructure which would have a rippling effect on everyone because it would mean merchants could not import goods from that region, which affects local pricing for everyone.

As a Flemish tax payer, that's money that doesn't benefit me.
