Librem 5 hardware update report for May 8th!
Including: Display drivers accepted upstream, Mesa, SMS, and compositor work.

Today we've updated the Librem One website with two important documents:
A short guide to staying safe online no matter what online service you are using. Like our policy document we've kept it short and to the point, with links to more detailed, independent resources if you'd like to learn more.
As well as a code of conduct that makes it clear we will respond to reports of harassment, for example on Librem Social, our opt-in social network.
One of the fundamental design goals for Librem One, outside of privacy, was linking all of our services under a single convenient login.
One account for:
- Email
- Social
- Chat
- VoIP & Video
One price. One account.
- Encrypted email
- Encrypted chat (+voice & video)
- Social Network
- VPN
No ads. No tracking. The way it should be.
Curious about the policies for Librem.One services (Chat, Social, etc.)?
- No Ads.
- No Tracking.
- We don't share or sell any of your data.
- We do not build profiles.
- We release all of our source code as Free Software.

@dave Email and VPN are part of the paid Librem One account. Social and Chat are free services for all.
@kristof Currently there is not a way to change from a free Librem One account to a paid one. But that is coming soon. I'll alert you once it's available.
"At Purism we will continue to work with, advance, partner, fund, push upstream, and most importantly release all our software under free software licenses."

"Most people want to retain their privacy and freedom and most people are concerned about their digital footprint. Most people do not want to be tracked all the time from all devices."
