Co worker just got one of these. Looks pretty neat! I didnt find anyone on Lemmy talking about it yet. Thoughts ?
Guessing its owned by some shithead we shouldnt trust, as things like this usually go.
Edit: yep, war criminal Erik Prince owner. Well, do not support this!
i was not advocating for this UP phone in any way and am sorry if it seemed that way. my next phone will indeed be running on GrapheneOS.
I was just trying to point out that using third party vpn infrastructure can make sense, even though i wouldn’t trust the vpn of UP in any way. trust is a difficult thing, but as of right now i’m liking mullvad.
100% with VPN services you’re shifting the trust, not removing the trust. And sorry, I just meant that as a general comment, I didn’t think you were implying that the UP phone’s implementation was inherently secure.
