I thought that was odd too. There is one instance of the word "ethical" in an otherwise technical article and it's hardly egregious compared to the marketing speech of nearly big tech company:
> We will continue to evolve as we understand better how this subset of the industry works. The success of our phone is critical, as it will provide us with the legitimacy and leverage we need to bend hardware suppliers to our way of thinking by showing them that we have the potential to be market leaders with ethical products that respect users.
- confounded 8y agoSee dang’s comment way down. The link was originally to a very self-congratulatory press release from the marketing person, and later changed to a blog post with details and exposition from the CTO. Purism’s style in press releases is pretty annoying, but I really appreciate the blog posts. I backed the phone. I’ve backed most GNU+Linux replacements for my iDevices. If it half-works it will have wildly exceeded my expectations! I wish them the very best.
- bo1024 8y agoThanks, that explains a lot. Sometimes HN's moderation style of changing links causes this kind of confusion.
