Yeah, yeah, the Fairphone is very fair until you're forced to use their software because they're unable to collaborate with GrapheneOS because they leak keys, all their bootloader security is bullshit and they don't care about making it right.

Who leaks keys? Can you provide me some reading material?

I found this on their forums https://forum.fairphone.com/t/bootloader-avb-keys-used-in-roms-for-fairphone-3-4/83448/23?page=2

It's true that there are issues preventing GrapheneOS from running on FairPhones, but you're not forced to use the standard OS: you can install other ROMs on FairPhone like LineageOS, CalyxOS, iodéOS, /e/

They're actively working with Murena to make sure /e/ works well, and you can even buy Fairphones with /e/ out of the box.
