In hindsight, I should’ve added a few more…
Repairability/sustainability: Easy to repair, sustainably produced.
Ethics: Anti-Big Tech (no Apple, no Samsung etc.), good workers’ rights and supply chain. Preferably European.
Privacy: Speaks for itself. Privacy or anonymity, measures that foster it rather than feed data to others.
I feel like Fairphone would hit the Repairability and likely also Ethics (since it’s a certified B corporation), but for Privacy, it’d be a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS… but it’s Google, and given the CLOUD Act…
Maybe I could add accessibility there too, interface customisation (I like the iOS interface ways, but still, it’s Apple), but that’s a separate category.
Buying your hardware from evil even if running graphene on it is not suitable to ops request.
Second hand market is great for not putting more money in google’s pocket :)
Exactly what I did. 180€ for a second hand 7a and it works as it should
Or support the non-evil companies.
Really hard to find, but yes I agree this is a good option too
