> A distro with shady revenue sources (check for yourself)

Do me a favor and tell me about our apparent shady revenue sources. We are run entirely by donations, there are large donors too.

> with shady hardware restrictions that only permits to use spyware phones from google

We cover this topic literally everywhere on a daily basis, with a thorough list of requirements found on our website.

> after years of complaints now permits you to use hardware from an NSA long time contractor.

Motorola Solutions and Motorola Mobility are entirely different companies. We've partnered with the latter.

> No, claiming that some magic hardware makes you more secure is not a valid reason

To bring you a rather extreme but also straightforward example, leaked documents from forensic software show we're holding up incredibly well.

> when you are using hardware where they have every reason to track you even further. Saying "nothing was found so far" is no excuse

Okay, so nothing we say will encourage you to change your thinking then.

> Now claims to solve a VPN leak when not long ago this same group were exposed promoting a governamental VPN and honeypot, a.k.a. Tor.

What?

> Just don't expose yourself to bait distros that forces you into spyware.

Strong claims like yours should ideally be backed up with equally strong sources and evidence, otherwise you quickly run out of steam.

> (not even complaining about their shady software choices).

Which are?
