I love this post:
"When we first approached hardware manufacturers almost two years ago with this project most of them instantly said “No, sorry, impossible, we can not help you.”. Others warned us, that it could never work, that it was too complicated, “the industry does not do that” and so forth.
And yet here we are, later than we wanted, but we are actually shipping first hardware! It is possible but it comes at a price." #Librem5

The solution to the privacy paradox is convenience. People want convenient products that respect them by default, that they can trust will not exploit them, that allow them to participate in digital society with peace of mind, knowing they are in complete control. https://puri.sm/posts/avoiding-big-tech-to-protect-your-privacy/ https://librem.one/ #purism #libremone
We've gotten some questions as to whether @purism laptops are vulnerable to TPM-Fail. We use a different chipset for our TPM so our laptops don't appear to be vulnerable.

A week ago Unbox Therapy featured the Librem 13 v4 on their channel https://youtu.be/hVcJgCvFuWo We had no idea they were going to do the review and were so happy that both Lewis and Willy found it "Simple, Clean. The most secure experience you can have." If you haven't had a chance to watch the video yet, which is nearly on 2.4m views, we've got a summary of highlights for you https://puri.sm/posts/the-librem-13-reviewed-by-unbox-therapy/ #Purism #Librem #Librem13 #PureOS #Linux #linuxLaptop
