Fairphone: please lead by example!

Read Original

The author criticizes Fairphone for signing an open letter advocating for user freedom to install any software on devices, while their own phones have a locked bootloader. The article details the author's failed attempt to install an alternative OS without first entering a contractual agreement with Google, arguing this makes Google the de-facto owner of the device.
