This is very vague and generally seems like an attempt to attack as much
as possible without providing any specifics that can be discussed.
Specifically, though, I see "and all the efforts to shut down

reference to the recent 30-minute suspend timeout, which for about the
fiftieth time *was simply a bug in a gsettings schema*, nothing more
sinister. It's already been fixed. Please stop referring to it as if
it's some sort of Grand Conspiracy. It is not.
