You certainly don't know Greek :)
Copr stands for "Cool Other Package Repositories" and is pronounced copper

There is already a bug tracking this effort for Fedora
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=915043
Also a few unofficial repos for rust/cargo on Copr https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/fulltext/?fulltext=r...

You can't make mass surveillance impossible if you require a platform that is a mass surveillance nightmare.
Also can we please stop calling this a Desktop app? It requires Chrome to run, so it's neither Desktop nor Web app.

I see only google gonts on my console, but I'll look into that. Thanks

* I claim no such thing. Installing apps through f-droid come from a secure channel, mot http.

True, but let me prefer DNS providers with "no log" policy.

I mention NSA to point out that you should at least avoid Companies that cooperate with them. Nothing more, nothing less.

That's why you shouldn't use Google's android builds. Keep reading the post.

So I have to explicitly state what this article is not about. Interesting approach...

True, but NSA is mentioned just because it made these discussions more vivid and relevant over the last months. The post doesn't claim that you get an NSA-proof phone. I don't think such thing exists.

Yeap. BUT between trashing your phone and filling it with proprietary apps there is a huge gap. This is what this post is about. I don't claim you'll get ultimate privacy. I'm sure that most people reading my post or commenting here are using a smartphone.

I'm talking about drivers. Can you provide an example? How the firmware needed for your camera can be executed on its own?

This is like saying there is no privacy for email so here I post my password on pastebin.
I control the software I run on my phone, so I have a better privacy. It's not perfect I know. But doing nothing because it's not perfect is the biggest illusion of all.

Nope. Privacy is not a black/white thing.
