IMHO, Geeks don’t cotton to thinking of themselves as borg pawns.

I think that is the main thing. It reminds me of the dumb joke in a Firesign Theater album:

Why did the short-hair cross the street? Because someone told him to.

Why did the long-hair cross the street? Because someone told him NOT to.

Actually, you could replace short-hair with Asian or European and replace long-hair with American. It’s why we had a revolution.

It is a long heritage and what makes us uniquely dangerous to despots - eventually.
