Ever since I learned about the Fairphone, I keep trying to figure out when they’ll release the Fairphone 5.
Further, I keep wondering whether it’ll be usable easily and realistically by Verizon, since there’s some complications with Fairphone being based in the Netherlands, but I believe generally supported across Europe since so much of their website is in English.
Just about anything I find over on Reddit seems to be outdated, speculating and guessing, or otherwise unreliable.
Anybody know many details about when it might come out, and whether it’ll be supported here in the US??
Strongly disagree. A fair, free, open internet is the core principal of the internet. If they’re worried about data collection standards they could simply not collect data and provide a read-only version of the website to regions they’re not invested in.
Denying the data, memory holes discussions, forum posts, etc… it’s extremely internet unhealthy.
But I respect that some companies might feel that they should only provide content to the region they’re currently providing. But it’s a terrible precedent.
