I'm in natural language and data mining, more into research and not a tech junkie. I'm only using 11.04.01 here and in the lab (when I cat the issue file). Works just fine for me.
It would send a better message. I would think it would be worth the time to configure their devices to use freeware and free and community supported operating systems rather than closed proprietary ones. Just wondering?
That would require effort, something obviously lacking with people who enjoy sitting in a city park 24/7.

Yep. Maybe they just enjoy products that are easier to use and configure, architected and envisioned by wealthy VPs and product managers and approved by Jobs.
I guess, when you try to categorize and pigeon-hole everyone, you are bound to find exceptions. Secretly gay Republicans, Strong Democratic CEO'S, Vegetarians who wear leather, etc...
I think the better policy is not to expect to draw a full personality profile on someone based on their participation in a single event, or their membership in a single organization.
I subscribe to and read the Wall Street Journal and belong to the ACLU. I used Mac, PC and Linux. What does that make me in your little world?

The majority of pictures featuring 99%ers have them using iPhones and not a Linux laptop.
If you support the 99%ers and are actually out there yelling for the end of corporate profits (not Democrat run Wall St. orgs. like MF Global I mean), then using an iPhone rather than a freeware OS is hypocritical in the extreme.

Yes, but there is a small hole in your theory.
The 99% aren't screaming for the end of corporate profits. Their message (while muddled) seems to be one espousing fairness, opportunity, and affordability. Equity is not the enemy of corporate profits.
I know its sport to falsely attribute ridiculous, extremist positions to the opposite side of the political spectrum-- which kind of proves my original point-- When you try to pigeonhole someone based on a single element, you are often going to end up looking foolish.
Would it help you to see that point if I pointed out some inconsistencies and hypocrisies of the Tea Party?
