i’m all for linux phones, android becomes locked down by google, iOS is proprietary and dumbphones seem like an unnecessary burden if you wanna participate in society.
But i oppose the inclusion of any state in FOSS development. The EU is constantly pushing for chat control, Germany uses Palantir and ACTA was a thing. The EU could flip in the next election cycle and make backdoors mandatory or cut funding and cause the collapse of active development which relies on EU funding if their demands are not met.
But i’m no developer, i’m just an active user so i can’t have an informed opinion on that.
