Sure makes it easier to quash dissent, and find potential dissent as its gathering.
So, on a "completely" different topic, does anyone know of reasonably priced Linux phones (not Android)?
- amiga-workbench 10y agoGet an old Nokia N9, it runs on Meego and an unbastardized Linux stack, X11, Alsa, QT etc
- swiley 10y agoSupposedly you can get fbdev on a lot of Nexus phones working with just the kernels from Google, I don't know about all the radio and audio stuff though.
- maxerickson 10y agoKeep in mind that the wireless operators are also trying to monetize this sort of information. The question for paranoids is if there is a pocket communicator with a physical radio switch and an information hiding protocol for authorizing access to the network (rather than using a fixed serial number like all the phone companies do).
- kefka 10y agoAnd I'd just like to actually have control over my own phone. Right now, it's Google, Apple, or MS. Google is the "free-est", but exacts their cost with your data. What I'd like, is something like a cut and dry Linux. The cell phone would be its own group, and you could add users to different groups and hardware, just like Debian or CentOS. I would also like to be able to create comprehensive dialer programs, that could route calls depending on incoming data, record audio, pipe audio via PulseAudio and things I can normally do with Linux right now. But in the best of situations, I'm forced to choose 3 of "Crap"... And hope I chose right so I can at least jailbreak (in reality, owning my device- it's not Apple's or Microsoft's).
