What does this have to do with 2nd Amendment rights???
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"
Computers could be argued as arms for a well regulated militia. It doesn't have to be a firearm specifically and with how much the US government has legally argued that computers are needed for war, they are technically an armament to the US government.
If an 2nd American Civil War happens, I think people would be contributing their devices to DDOS attacks against ICE and other Regime forces. Computers really are weapons, if the need arises.
Because if I have to go back to using Windows, I'm going to put a gun in my mouth?
Edit: in case anyone gets concerned, this is hyperbole.
Mmmmm, Hoppe's No. 9!
Ah yes now it makes sense! ;-)
Not a lot, even the argument in https://xkcd.com/504/ doesn't really work for this. First Amendment meanwhile…
I assume rebellion
