It’s a pretty straightforward questionβ€”though, if I’m being honest, the answer might be a little more complicated than it looks at first glance. πŸ˜‰

Look, the real headache kicks in when a law from a country we normally call home starts trashing our core values.
Maybe the Greeks weren't actually being stupid with that whole exile from the city thing. If you really sit down and think about it, what other choice is there besides just leaving?
Maybe try fighting to change the law? But if it was passed legally? While it’s still on the books, do you follow it or do you push back?

Absolutelyβ€”but perhaps through the creative defiance seen in Mahatma Gandhi’s tactics during the British Salt Act, or even the political maneuvering of George W. Bush during his time on the Presidency of America.

When laws are fundamentally unjust, we have a duty to openly defy or ignore them, fully prepared to face whatever consequences follow. πŸ˜‰

In a country where you can't even trust if the government institutions are legit, half the laws don't mean squat anyway.

Yep, I'm all set. Picked up my own macOS. I don't mess around with old CDs or DVDs anymore.
