  1. @GrapheneOS I would switch to grapheneOS if I could use it on fairphone because I believe in an absolute right to privacy its not just for abusers. I'm not going to get a phone other than the fairphone because it's more important to me that there is no slavery and conflict minerals used in the phone and the modularity is a nice plus too. So unless grapheneOS supports a phone that has these features I can't ethically justify buying a phone without them just to use it.

    This analysis uncovers the uncomfortable truth: capitalism cannot produce universal prosperity without exploiting workers worldwide.

  7. In a bold move, the Democratic Republic of #Congo #DRC has filed criminal complaints against #Apple in #Belgium and #France, accusing the tech firm of using #conflictminerals in its supply chain.

    Congo is a major source of #tin, #tantalum and #tungsten and some artisanal mines are run by armed groups involved in massacres of civilians, mass rapes, looting and other crimes, according to U.N. experts and #humanrights groups.

  8. A Reminder:

    If the only way we can get ourselves to not commit crimes against humanity and violate human rights is by finding more profitable things to do that don't include that,

    Then we haven't actually found a solution or fixed anything.

  9. @publicvoit
    So-called #smartphones have been getting bigger for 10 years or so – we strongly dislike it.

    What happened to #humanity? When did we decide they wanted to carry around a large pane of glass and #conflictMinerals everywhere they went?

    We partly blame #Android5.

    Before Android 5 the GUI worked great on a small phone.
