So, incorrect usage of a fallacy, moving goalposts, feigned ignorance , and now projection.
Claiming that something is a fallacy doesn’t make it any less true. It’s a very lazy way of arguing.
The real problem is that some countries are actively trying to de-anonymize internet users. Not all countries accused of it are actually doing it, not all laws that people say will do it actually have this goal and not every technology that makes it possible will for sure be used with this purpose. Going on wild chases after some silly PRs in systemd or digital IDs is not helping anyone. It just serves as a distraction and makes fighting the real threats more difficult.

100% agree that this is a big problem, it’s not the only one, but a big one.
I’m expecting it to work on a multiplicative curve, exponential ? geometric?
All of the bits from various places will add up and continue to accumulate momentum towards the goal.

Which is again, not the point and also incorrect.
Highlighting this as another example of the continuous creep towards end goal while explaining the increasing encroachment is incredibly useful for getting more eyes on the bigger picture.
because…the issue isn’t the PR , but the intent behind it.
If it was just about the PR itself in isolation, i’d agree with you.
If anything, you trying to shut down the discussion around this “silly” PR is doing more to harm the general increase in awareness.
And more comments about systemd but 0 talk about the legislation. So far I don’t see any confirmation for you theory that talking about systemd helps promote this issue and fight the legislation.

I agree completely, i’ve seen an example of this recently :
I also have a list of examples of things that are not fallacies, just poor debate skills:
If i had to pick one though i’d probably go with the Invincible ignorance fallacy
