Anybody knows if this phone is "fair" as well? (Eco-friendly/fair worker conditions.)

  Eco-friendliness and fair-trade would hike up the price and would require more work, unfortunately. If it were those things, they would probably actively advertise it. On the bright side, this work, since it's opensource, might facilitate a similar future projects that could aim for higher responsibility standards. Personally, this platform caught me a bit off guard, and I'm currently ecstatic with the possibilites.

  It's very unlikely to be. The Fairphone is one of the only phones making an effort, and it's a lot of work [1] and even then they're still long ways of from being actually fair. I can't imagine Purism to have the time to invest in this, nor to do that without even so much as mentioning it. [1] https://www.fairphone.com/en/blog/ https://www.fairphone.com/en/blog/

    Indeed. Hopefully one day two projects in these spaces can converge once they've learned all they need to for each niche.
