Absolutely. I would love to buy a Purism phone if A. they make it usable as a daily driver and B. they actually follow through with making it secure. Say what you want about Google and Apple but iPhones and Pixels are relatively secure, but some may consider the code running on them to not be trustworthy.

Your phone is probably your most valuable device, with more private information than many others. It seems especially important to ensure that it is secure and trustworthy.
