@patrizia @burdickjp @murena There’s also another saying: If FairPhone is an ethical company and they have no problem encouraging people to use Google, then Google must be an ethical company too (otherwise FairPhone would be unethical in suggesting the use of an unethical company).
I do agree that it doesn’t roll off the tongue as easily, though.

#fairphone has a very, very specific battle in this war. They are demonstrating that ethically sourced and manufactured consumer electronics hardware is viable. The magnitude of this effort cannot be understated.
The ugly thing about battles is that you sometimes find yourself allied with parties you'd otherwise rather not associate with. If we want ethical software for their ethical hardware, that is a battle we can fight, and celebrate meeting them in victory.
