And what good is the phone when 3 switches are off? You think that people buy a phone with a "mic killswitch" expects to have to turn off practically everything including internet to make sure that their mics aren't snooped on?

Does that really sound like a functioning "killswitch"?

The mind, it boggles.

On a long enough timeline he'll probably cite this comment chain as proof you were unable to respond to his concerns, like everyone else who's ever tried.

  • Oh he's already done that when I explained to him how stuff like PureBoot has circular logic and doesn't actually work on Qubes forum already.

    Unfortunately he will just ignore every single counter argument ever made and blindly believe these companies because their marketing material has "freedom" and "FOSS" in it.

    • On Qubes forum, you had replies from far more knowledgeable people than me. You never could answer to them. You only talk about the lack of security of Pureboot and never showed the code breaking it. "Talk is cheap, show me the code".
