562 <h1>Does the gift you're giving your loved ones put someone else in control?</h1>
563 <p>The COVID-19 pandemic has made us more reliant on technology than
564 ever, which is a compelling reason to think carefully about the
565 choices we're making during the gift-giving season. Is that smart
566 assistant smart enough to respect your friend or family member's
567 freedom? Do new gaming consoles like the PlayStation 5 restrict more than they
568 entertain? Or does that shiny gadget come at a cost much higher than
569 its price tag?</p>
570 <p>When we allow <a href="https://gnu.org/proprietary">proprietary software</a> created by Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Google, and countless other companies to handle our basic computing tasks, we put an enormous amount of power in their hands, power which they freely exploit. It's only through using <a href="https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html">free software</a>, and <a href="https://ryf.fsf.org">devices running free software</a>, that we can seize this power back.</p>
571 <h4>Freedom is the gift that keeps on giving</h4>
572 <p>Letting your loved ones know that
573 you respect their privacy and freedom too much to cave in for the
574 newest Apple or Google device is a great gift in itself, and one that
575 you can feel good about.</p>

658 <p>Why it's cool: While we're still waiting for it to be released, this
659 device looks promising. We're giving it a tentative recommendation
660 because the company has publicly committed to doing the right things
661 for prioritizing user freedom and privacy, and because we <i>have</i>
662 <a href="https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html">evaluated and endorsed</a> the operating system it will run.</p>
663 <p>Considering
664 that many people around the world use a mobile phone as their only
665 Internet-enabled device, it's important to have confidence that your
666 mobile phone isn't "listening in" on you to make more money for
667 advertisers.</p>

677 Instead of Android or iOS, the Librem 5 runs the <a href="https://www.pureos.net/">PureOS</a> distribution of the <a href="https://gnu.org">GNU/Linux</a> operating system. The FSF has carefully vetted PureOS's commitment to user freedom with our guidelines for fully free systems.
678 </li>
679 <li>Comes equipped with physical <a href="https://puri.sm/posts/lockdown-mode-on-the-librem-5-beyond-hardware-kill-switches/">killswitches</a> for the microphone, GPS, and Wi-Fi connections, making snitching on your whereabouts a physical impossibility.
680 </li>
681 <li>Please note that the secondary processor (or "baseband") on the device still contains nonfree software. To preserve your freedom and privacy, be sure to flip the killswitch after placing a call or sending a text.</li>
682 <li>Pairing the phone with Purism's own cell service <a href="https://puri.sm/products/librem-awesim/">AweSIM</a> can provide you

687 <ul class="cons">
688 <li>
689 It's not just Siri that's creepy: all Apple devices contain software that's hostile to users. Although they claim to be concerned about user privacy, they don't hesitate to <a href="https://www.gnu.org/proprietary/malware-apple.html#surveillance">put their users under surveillance</a>.
690 </li>
691 <li>
692 iOS is a fully <a href="https://gnu.org/proprietary/">proprietary operating system</a>, giving Apple control over the software on every Apple device. This means they're putting themselves as the "man in the middle" between us and every message we send to our friends.
693 </li>
694 <li>Apple has a history of exploiting their absolute control over their users to <a href="https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2019-10-08/apple-taiwan-flag-emoji-iphones-hong-kong">silence political activists</a> and help governments <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/07/world/asia/china-xi-jinping-study-the-great-nation-app.html">spy on millions</a> of users.</li>

1204 <p>In the last year, we've all become a little more dependent on streaming media. But it's important to remember how streaming services can deprive you of important rights. "Dis-services" like Disney+ and Netflix mandate the use of a hardware-level backdoor called Widevine, giving them permanent access into deep components of your machine.</p>
1205 <p>Widevine prohibits these services from running on many older devices, as well as most computers running GNU/Linux, leaving families who can't afford a new computer or a new television out in the cold.</p>
