Apparently I said some things not consensual in this show 😇

Sorry if we want something different!

Sorry if we want to make the digital world better!

So I am repeating again, and again...

/e/OS is not designed to (supposedly, possibly, in the best case, if no 0-day exploit...) protect targeted people from security exploits.

What /e/OS is designed for is protecting users from the permanent data collection that dominates modern smartphones.

💡 There are far more ethical options to Google Search.

✅ Murena Find does not spy on you.

No user profiling = no targeted ads = no political or commercial bias

Use it in your browser, your Murena Workspace account and on your Murena smartphone - with Advanced Privacy for even more protection.

Murena Find is free. You stay the customer – never the product.

I had a great time as a guest on the show "A la French" with super sharp questions from Jean-Baptiste Kempf Mehdi Medjaoui Steeve Morin 🙏

Talking about Mandrake Linux and Murena/e/OS of course, but more generally about privacy and "organic tech"!

Somewhat technical and in 🇫🇷 language but you get the subtitles.

And yes it's YouTube, I know...

@merinos @gael je suis sous /eos depuis 1 an et demi, après 4 ans de lineage, et j'en suis ravi. J'ai même acheté mon smartphone sur le critère qu'il était compatible.
@gael intéressant, ça motive pour migrer sur /e/os. Je pense que je franchirais le pas avec mon prochain smartphone.
@gael super interview, j'y ai appris beaucoup de chose 👍 #Murena
