@astheroth Their Librem.one service suite requires you to give them your home address even if you are paying with crypto.
Purism is not a scam, I bought several things from them, things that I use everyday, working fine.
Many people are angry at Purism because Purism promised more than they could deliver. People waited a long time and did not get refund, things like that. But saying Purism is a scam is wrong, it is a real company making real things and importantly making real contributions to free software, which I appreciate a lot.
@eliasr @astheroth There is no reason that you should have to fully dox yourself just to sign up for their paid email when they offer crypto payments. Hell, Posteo doesn't accept crypto payments but you can still pay for their email anonymously by mailing them cash ala MullvadVPN.
It is very possible that you are right and they are handling that badly, but my guess is that there is not any malicious intent behind that, it is just a matter of not knowing how to do it in a good way. Don't assume evil when the explanation can be simply clumsiness or incompetence.
Remember that we are not talking about a trillion-dollar company like google here, this is a small company with not so great resources.
