So fun fact, the #librem5 kill switches work extremely well!
I can keep the Mic/camaera off until I need to make a phone call and/or take a picture. Even if I forget to turn on the mic before the call, it will flip and work just fine!
Wifi/Bluetooth and the modem kill switch also work great.
@kop316 I use them all the time! In particular I will use the wifi kill switch whenever I leave the house as a quick and easy way to save battery.

This is the main reason I am considering springing $1300+ on a Librem 5. I currently use a #Pinephone but the lack of (actually useful) killswitches makes me long for something better.
Another good reason to buy an L5 is that you are supporting the development of Mobile Linux. Purism pays for a full time engineers to develop for mobile linux!
@kop316 @blendergeek @kyle @agx There are plenty of good reasons to buy #Librem5, and now as a happy owner of #MNTreform laptop I can only confirm a good choice of hardware (I was a bit skeptical about it comparing to Rpi3B+ of a similar architecture) is just yet another one. It's not getting old/obsolete, merely seasoned.
