Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is luxury, survive a month without it.

Governments around the world are demanding backdoors into encrypted data. 

🚪What are backdoors?

🔒How do they undermine our right to privacy and security?

🛡️What can you do to protect our right to privacy?

Which smartphone is the best?
The one with the best camera, the sharpest display, the fastest SoC, or maybe the biggest battery and the latest shiny features?

No.
The best smartphone is the one that respects its user, the one that gives you control and freedom.

And that’s any device that can run postmarketOS, or Mobian.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

Denmark has scheduled a vote on Chat Control the 14th of October. Despite not wanting to break end-to-end encryption, 🇩🇪 Germany remains both UNDECIDED and critical to defeating the proposal.

If you are German, please take action and contact your Bundestag members today via https://fightchatcontrol.de !
