Adversarial interoperability should be legal. Users should be able to use software on their own devices the way they want to. The tariff wars have opened up a new political opportunity to make that happen. @pluralistic explains it well:

@pluralistic @eighthave it's a way too optimistic article. I wish it was like that but sober reasoning and experience tell me that there's nothing like people's interests governments ever cared for. they have other goals. and free software is not profitable for their thick pockets. so they won't ever let it thrive just for the sake of public good.

@iron_bug @pluralistic Free Software does provide Digital Sovereignity and lots of governments are jumping on free software exactly for that reason. And the more they build around free software, the more they will also want adversarial interoperability.
