      It’s a Librem5 phone with cringe name and 100% markup, but it’s their own product nonetheless. I.e. it is not a generic Android with a custom skin and preinstalled apps like Trump Phone, Freedom Phone, or Quantum Internet box.

      You can buy pretty much the same Librem5 assembled in China for ~$700. Take a look at Liberux Nexx Linux phone too (they are just staring out)

      (Not sure what you’re calling racist here, appeal to “patriots”?)

        The implication that Chinese-made goods are less private. Also I’m pretty sure most people speculate that the Trump phone is just a rebranded one of these? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
