I work for a federal nuclear research laboratory in the US. If my participation here causes conflict, please let me know.
That is what I don't want to get my hands involved in when it comes to military or nuclear use, and neither does Mike#1.
While I can understand your ethical point of not supporting those sectors commercially, I feel you're both missing one particular dimension.
The technology is here and, especially in countries other than Germany, here to stay. I'm not judging, whether this is good or bad. I will, however, determine, that whenever someone uses X2Go, this implies one less possibility to use Windows. Assuming the constraint, that at least some nuclear power plants will not be shut down any time soon, I feel better knowing their computers are running a Linux-based operating system and not Windows.
