Comment on Fairphone 5 - release date and US support??

I’m seriously considering a Fairphone for my next device. If only GrapheneOS could run on it… It would be a no brainer at that point.
I can’t find the link, but there was some discussion from the graphene developers about needing some data that they couldn’t get from fairphone. I searched the GitHub issues but I couldn’t find it. Maybe it’s in the forum.
Interestingly fair phone forum blocks my country, saying data is not available in my country. Doesn’t sound very fair to me
It isn’t a huge company and adhering to regulations on data collection costs money. If they don’t operate in your country, not offering the website at all is the cheapest thing to do, so it almost surely isn’t malice.
Strongly disagree. A fair, free, open internet is the core principal of the internet. If they’re worried about data collection standards they could simply not collect data and provide a read-only version of the website to regions they’re not invested in.
Denying the data, memory holes discussions, forum posts, etc… it’s extremely internet unhealthy.
But I respect that some companies might feel that they should only provide content to the region they’re currently providing. But it’s a terrible precedent.
Silly you, they’re not fair to people! They’re fair to their shareholders.

I would, but sadly the security hardware just isn’t there. Calyx works though!
