Europe… the guys that want backdoors into all encrypted communication… the guys that want to give Google a big fat contract for app attestatio for their age verification apps…
Europe…? You guys thought of Europe? I feel like the entire EU policy right now is anathema to an Open Source Phone
You're right, but it's more nuanced than that.
The EU is like a Hydra. Some heads are consumer facing, others are population control facing.
Success would mean distracting the control heads while wooing the population heads.
No easy task.
