If you’re passionate about trying to keep Shadowlands a great expansion and have been voicing your concern about the restrictions around covenants/conduits, I’d like to ask you: have you been active on social media about it?
Right now, social media is a more transparent and public venue. It’s also much easier to share the #pulltheripcord movement and gain support of it.
Social media is what brought over FOUR THOUSAND likes to this thread:

So if you want to continue supporting free-will and a flexible, player friendly covenant system that actually provides meaningful choices and reinforces the RP in Shadowlands, consider doing the following:
1 – Share any relevant threads on the forums via your social media platforms and continue to request support.
2 – Do DAILY searches on your social media platforms for the #pulltheripcord tag and do 2 things: (1) Like each post that supports the movement and (2) make sure that at least @warcraftdevs are tagged in the post; if not, comment and tell the poster to add it and add your own #pulltheripcord tag while you’re at it.
3 – Continue to create your own posts which include both the devs handle and the # tag, DAILY if necessary. Paste in any particular arguments/points that you strongly agree with.
4 – Above all – be respectful.
