Oh ffs, why do I even look into these things? I think I’m being harsh and then it’s always worse than I thought:
FairPhone has taken venture capital.
fairphone.com/wp-content/uploa…
They’ve been invested in by, among others, Invest-NL (currently three exits, all IPOs¹) and Quadia (also three exits, all acquisitions²).
I would just like it if for once – fucking once – it wasn’t just about making money.
*sigh*

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •I understand your concerns around Fairphone, but I'm looking to replace my phone and they seem like the best option. Would you recommend another phone over the Fairphone?
Edit: To be clear, I'm not questioning any of the points you made --I agree with them --just trying to make the best decision for my next phone.
