How do they outlaw an operating system?

Is linux next? I can run it on my phone, or tablet, or small pocket pc too.

that's not possible to ban hardware, or OS ...

Guns are hardware too. You'd need a license to operate a computer? A license for an OS?

Sounds ridiculous. Now.

I guess I'll have an illegal device then.

Everyone with an illegal hw/os will be shot on sight. Ok put in a cage, property confiscated, family taken hostage ... the usual state stuff.

This is how you stop bitcoin. Or finally create real dark web. Not just for black markets, but for gray markets too.
