*Crossing the Chasm Toward the Tipping Point*

We have solved all our early growing pains and are leaping across the 
chasm as we continue to pour investment into growth, stock, products 
<https://puri.sm/products/>, software <https://pureos.net/>, services 
<https://puri.sm/products/librem-awesim/>, and convenience. Weaver 
spelled out how Purism's growth will help advance the entire ecosystem 
of free and open software and hardware. Read about Todd's vision here

*A Vision in Focus*

Providing secure, ethical alternatives to Big Tech hardware, software 
and services <https://puri.sm/products/librem-awesim/> is a huge 
mission. We have big, challenging goals towards this mission. How will 
this vision of expanding the Librem product line, delivering products 
faster and growing the access to free and open hardware be realized? 
Purism's President, Kyle Rankin lays out his vision succinctly in his 
latest article. Read it here <https://puri.sm/posts/a-vision-in-focus/>.

*Freedom From Coercion*

At its very heart, we exist with the purpose to defend your digital 
rights. Are you safe from forced backdoors or software bans if 
governments lean on your vendors? Could you or someone you hire inspect 
the code in that case? The solution is free software and increasing your 
security self-sufficiency 
<https://puri.sm/posts/security-self-sufficiency/> so you can identify 
those areas where you are dependent upon other companies. You should 
choose solutions that allow you to revoke trust easily, hold your own 
keys, and audit your digital supply chain. Read Kyle Rankin's viewpoint 
<https://puri.sm/posts/freedom-from-coercion> on how how proprietary 
software is susceptible to backdoors, and how free software keeps you 
safe from them.

*Librem 5 Suspend Testing*

Looking to enhance battery life when your life and phone are "always 
on"? Our Librem 5 teams are continously innovating to find better ways 
of saving the battery life. Save power when you aren't using your Librem 
5 <https://wp.puri.sm/products/librem-5/> or Librem 5 USA 
<https://wp.puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/> phone and use the power of 
the "suspend" mode. This mode save power and keeps only calling and 
messaging functions activated. Here is the preview
