Sure, but for me, personally, if you need proprietary things to have 2/3/4G etc is not freedom, no matter where you put it.

That said, Librem5 is still ahead compared to any Android phone regarding freedom and especially privacy part.

You’re arguing that fully Open Hardware is the only acceptable thing for freedom. I’m not saying that you’re wrong, but was this your opinion when your were CTO? Are the Purism laptops all Open Hardware?

I am not arguing anything, I am stating my opinion.

I spent my time in Purism cleaning such false claims about laptops and I was open about where we stand with it. That said, laptops have less issues than modern phones regarding freedom part and people just need to be aware and honest about it and not say "no binary blobs" when actually you will use binary blobs for crucial capabilities of modern phone otherwise you will have a brick in your pocket.
