New Post: A Phone That Respects Your Children

The child sees the father carefully turning off all the kill switches, before handing over the phone. The first thought of the child will be, “Oh cool, it’ll be really fun to play with those neat looking switches.”

20 minutes later: “Oh lookie! Daddy is no longer paying attention to me playing this dorky game. Let’s try that game that looks like a globe. Wow, it is showing me something different every time I open it, not like my boring game that’s always the same. Let’s start touching stuff and see what happens. Wheee!”

Three weeks later: “Daddy, I wanna play with the phone! I want the phone! I wanna play…”

“OK, honey, here you go!” He hands his child the Librem 5 wrapped in 5 layers of duct tape. “Boring! Hey, let’s see if we can kick it like a ball around the room!”
