I remember when Fairphone firat came out, they talked a bit about their work. Their conclusion was that it was simply not possible to create a phone that had all parts from ethical sources, so picked some specific things to focus on that were high impact and achievable at scale.

It’s likely the most ethical phone you can buy, but that is mostly due to how bad most phones are.

Is it stealing if that’s why it’s there?

Especially if you put a link in a comment for attribution.

Am not sure I get the analogy. Most people don’t like politicians and I’m pretty sure politicians are only pretending to like their constituents.

My short summary is they donated money to a linux project run by a nazi. When called out on it, they said that they wanted a big tent where everyone is included to help grow the ecosystem.

I guess this is the paradox of tolerance in action.
