I got a job and that required me to run some non free software, and so I did, I wanted to be an adult and have my own money and make a difference in the world. This started a slippery slope, and a couple of years later I got an iPhone, because "It just works" and I needed something "reliable" to communicate with my social circle. This getting and iPhone resulted in at least 4 other people in my circle getting iPhones.
