I'm weird enough to be interested in these kind of things, but the whole site is really .. just fluff. Ignoring that and focusing on the sparse details of the actual thing:
- High-End Android device
- Privacy features in the (custom) Android version
- "Secure communication builtin"
Again, I like the idea. But so far the details match CyanogenMod (with TextSecure for SMS, maybe XPrivacy on top)?
- soci 13y agoYes, looks like an Android powered device. So, at the end is just another OS right? One of the big drawbacks when I first started my nexus5 was that I was being spyed. Why the hell do I need a gmail account to get started?! I wonder if it would be possible to install this Android flavour in a Nexus device ?
- redacted 13y agoYou don't actually need a gmail account for what its worth - Google just makes it difficult. On the screen where it requests a login you (seriously) need to tap each corner of the screen in clockwise order starting from the top left. That should skip the step.
- ianlevesque 13y agoThat's useful, and user-hostile. On iOS you can just tap "Skip this step" if you don't want to use an Apple account with it.
- Mikeb85 13y agoYet you need an Apple account to download anything from the App Store or iTunes... An iPhone without apps is barely useful.
- higherpurpose 13y agoUnless someone forks it, and builds support for your phone's drivers in it - then it's not possible.
