PureOS vs. Trump Phone Android OS- Patriot Branding Does Not Mean Privacy Protection

In a recent CNN report, skepticism surrounds the Trump Organization’s claim that its new “T1” smartphone is “Made in the USA.”

Experts, including Todd Weaver, CEO of Purism, challenged the claim, citing striking similarities between the T1 and a low-cost Chinese phone, the Revvl 7 Pro 5G, made by Wingtech, a Chinese manufacturer.

Weaver emphasized the logistical and technical difficulty of building a phone in the U.S.

Purism manufactures the electronics of our Liberty Phone and Librem Key at our facility in the US for the following reasons:

We believe China—an adversarial country to the US—should not be manufacturing high-tech electronics for US citizens nor US government security devices.

Made in USA Electronics aligns with US interests.

We believe that US Labor laws are superior to China’s.
We believe that US Environmental laws are superior to China’s.
