This is insane. You start with a lofty ideal involving "freedom", and when you end up with a meaningless technicality (and in technical terms a change for the worse) you consider it a victory? Yes, I know that this is what happens in politics (look here, our laws had an effect!), but I have more respect for you than to think you fall for these kinds of games. I do not wish to revise my opinion.
