There's a reason why Sweden and Finland held out for so long.

And that they're doing it with no say from the people.

When I try, it throws a popup that says "You must have at least one network."

Sounds like it might allow you to disable it after you plug your own router in. If not, customer service might be able to do it. Ask them to put it in modem only mode.

Claiming a territory against the will of its people is exactly what imperialism is.

It is nothing less than colonisation.

You mean like when the KMT fled to Taiwan, brutalized the natives, and colonized it, imposing four decades of martial law?

I bet you don't feel the same about separatism in Catalonia, Donbas, Kurdistan, or the Zapatistas.

Literally none of those are imperialism. Imperialism isn’t having a region want independence. Do you think Scotland not being allowed to have a vote is imperialism?
