Exactly right. Neo expressed true freedom when Agent Smith, enraged, asks Neo why he keeps fighting, and Neo says “because I choose to”.
Our world is full of people who have been programmed like robots, that don’t examine their programming. Freedom from the Matrix starts with recognizing our programmable nature, and learning to see clearly how it’s exploited by the system. Only then can we begin to program ourselves.

Indeed
“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. …In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons…who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind.”

- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 1 month ago:
Would love to see how they’d incorporate all the new tech and capability of these consoles to see a NEW Star Fox game. These games were designed based on the confines of the medium at the time. Seems like they’re just restricting a decent IP because they’re too afraid to take a risk on try new stuff, like so many flops of the last couple of decades.
