  • Download Android Os for Phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives to Android
    download android os for phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives To Android. It’s no exaggeration to say that open source operating systems rule the world of mobile devices. Android is still an open-source project, after all. But, due to the bundle of proprietary software that comes along with Android on consumer devices, many people don’t consider it an open source operating system. So, what are the alternatives to Android? iOS? Maybe, but I am primarily interested in open-source alternatives to Android. I am going to list not one, not two, but several alternatives, Linux-based mobile OSes . Top Open Source alternatives to Android (and iOS) Let’s see what open source mobile operating systems are available. Just to mention, the list is not in any hierarchical or chronological order . 1. Plasma Mobile. A few years back, KDE announced its open source mobile OS, Plasma Mobile. Plasma Mobile is the mobile version of the desktop Plasma user interface, and aims to provide convergence for KDE users. It is being actively developed, and you can even find PinePhone running on Manjaro ARM while using KDE Plasma Mobile UI if you want to get your hands on a smartphone. 2. postmarketOS. PostmarketOS (pmOS for short) is a touch-optimized, pre-configured Alpine Linux with its own packages, which can be installed on smartphones. The idea is to enable a 10-year life cycle for smartphones. You probably already know that, after a few years, Android and iOS stop providing updates for older smartphones. At the same time, you can run Linux on older computers easily.

  • Open Hardware: Pureos and Arduino
    Published on Tux Machines (http://www.tuxmachines.org) Home > content > Open Hardware: PureOS and Arduino Open Hardware: PureOS and Arduino By Rianne Schestowitz Created 07/01/2021 - 7:39am Submitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 7th of January 2021 07:39:57 AM Filed under Hardware [1] PureOS: freedom, privacy, and security [2] A recent blog post from Purism?the company that developed PureOS to run on its security- focused hardware?celebrates three years of FSF endorsement of the Linux distribution. While this endorsement is an achievement that is not as highly valued by our communities as one might think, the work done to obtain and maintain that endorsement is useful even to those who disdain the FSF or disagree with its definition of what makes a distribution "free". While Purism and PureOS have been on our radar for a few years now, it seems worth a look at where things have gone with the distribution?and the company behind it. The blog post notes that PureOS and Purism "sit on a three-legged stool of Freedom, Privacy and Security". The three are intertwined, of course, since PureOS consisting of only free software allows users to ensure there are no antifeatures being slipped into the OS or applications that would impact their privacy or security. Beyond that, free software is an excellent defense against various software supply-chain attacks; in addition the scrutiny of the code afforded to free software, it can also be built in a manner that provides more security... [...] As might be guessed, security and privacy features do not come for free?or even inexpensively.

  • Free Software As Commons
    FREE SOFTWARE AS COMMONS BETWEEN INFORMATIONAL CAPITALISM AND A NEW MODE OF PRODUCTION By Emrah Irzık Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Professor Jakob Rigi CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2015 Statement I hereby state that the thesis contains no material accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Emrah Irzık Budapest, November 2015 CEU eTD Collection Abstract Free Software is a particular way of organizing the production and distribution of software that offers a solid alternative to the intellectual property regime by constituting an open commons: non-proprietary, created and held in common by all. Considering that in contemporary capitalism a significant amount of wealth is created through the application of intellectual effort to existing knowledge to produce new, higher compositions of knowledge that can be privately monetized as intellectual property, the challenge that Free Software might present to capitalism is bound to have important transformational potential. This potential needs to be studied both on an empirical level, in its partial and concrete manifestations in actual projects, and investigated more theoretically, to see if Free Software can be characterized as a nascent, new mode of production. This dissertation aims to contribute to the theorization of the relation between Free Software as a commons and the tenets of informational capitalism by means of an analytical study that is supported by an ethnography of a particular instance of Free Software as a project and a community.

  • The Intel Management Engine: an Attack on Computer Users' Freedom by Denis Gnutoo Carikli
    A statement by FSF President Richard Stallman on the Intel Management Engine (ME): "Meltdown and Spectre are errors. Grave errors, to be sure, but not evidently malicious. Everyone makes mistakes. Intel has done far worse with its CPUs than make a mistake. It has built in an intentional back door called the Management Engine. Important as these bugs are, don©t let Intel©s mistakes distract you from Intel©s deliberate attack!" The Intel Management Engine: an attack on computer users© freedom By Denis GNUtoo Carikli With security issues like the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities (https://www.cnet.com/news/meltdown-spectre-intel-ceo-no-recall-chip-processor/) discovered in Intel chips in early 2018, it became more important than ever to talk about the necessity of software freedom in these deeply embedded technologies. Serious as though these bugs may be, we cannot let them distract us from the broader issues: Intel considers the Intel Management Engine a feature, while it©s nothing more than a threat to user freedom. Thanks to Denis GNUtoo Carikli, we have a new basis for that conversation in this article. The Intel Management Engine is a tool that ships with Intel chipsets, purportedly to ease the job of system administrators. But in reality, it is another restriction on user freedoms, imposed by a company, and used to control your computing. Carikli offers a moderately technical explanation of what©s happening with Management Engine, the ways in which it restricts rather than empowers users, and how it violates the four freedoms of free software. Carikli may be best known for his work on the Replicant project (https://www.replicant.us/), which he co-founded with Aaron Williamson, Bradley Kuhn, and Grazlano Sorbaioli.
