The Free Software Foundation have put the Librem 5 https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/ on their Ethical Tech Gift Giving guide for 2019 https://www.fsf.org/givingguide/v10/
"Why it's cool: Although it won't be released until Q2 2020, this phone is one to keep an eye on. We're giving it a tentative recommendation because the company has publicly committed to doing the right things for prioritizing user freedom and privacy, and because we have evaluated and endorsed the operating system it will run." #Librem5 #FSF
#Librem5 backers in the Birch batch have started sharing unboxing photos https://azdle.net/2019/11/librem-5-unboxing/ (attached CC-BY 2.0) videos https://peertube.co.uk/videos/watch/55eece8c-2d6c-4da3-8c8c-895217d66e2a and positive early impressions https://www.reddit.com/r/Purism/comments/e2mqgb/i_have_my_librem_5_ama/ thank you to all our supporters for your patience and excitement 😀
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
We are delighted to share that early yesterday we shipped the first #Librem5 Birch devices to backers https://puri.sm/posts/librem-5-birch-shipping-announcement/

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.
