I accept that it has potentially good uses, but I still think it's a bit creepy as long as the Patriot Act exists.

If you really want to throw them for a loop, I suggest using an obscure OS, maybe something like BeOS or Plan 9. :P

I still have an Amiga 3000 in my closet!

I still miss my OS/2 Warp :/ So clean, so fast, so (sniffle)...
I held out for about 2 years after they sold out to Microsoft's threats and stopped updating the client version, which infuriated me (and Stardock did some Warp 4 versions of their games, including Entrepreneur, which was hilarious)...
If I wasn't so 1) digitally impaired and 2) lazy, I'd have linux back on my system now :/.

Ubuntu Linux is a very simple, delightfully "lazy" alternative to Windows.
Yeah this is kinda sorta scary, but could that little snooper device break through AES encrypted files?
