    Reclaiming Digital Privacy

Purism started in 2014, with the focused intent to build secure products 
that respect digital freedom.

We started with a clear vision to build hardware that respected a users' 
essential freedoms and privacy. It is a different from a for-profit only 
company, it is a Social Purpose Corporation, dedicated to building 
secure alternatives for humanity.

The Librem line of mobile phones, laptops and mini computers 
<https://puri.sm/products/> are mindfully designed by the Purism team.

Share it with those who value their digital freedom and privacy.


    How We Fixed Reboot Loops on the Librem Mini

Librem Mini <https://puri.sm/products/librem-mini/> is Purism's 
small-form factor PC and is highly requested by the community, with 
PureOS, PureBoot (coreboot +Heads) and Librem Key support. With 
coreboot's specialized tooling, support from our amazing community, and 
a little bit of creativity, our team fixed a regression in coreboot 4.17 
that caused reboot loops on the Librem Mini. Learn more about this 
instance of firmware debugging

    Auto-Contrast on the Librem 5

We are continously innovating and improving the Librem 5 software. Phosh 
is a mobile GNOME-based interface, empowering you to run the same apps 
on your phone that you use on your laptop or desktop computer. The most 
recent release of Phosh (short for "phone shell") has added a feature to 
automatically switch to a high contrast theme when in direct sunlight. 
It can really come in handy, especially on bright days. Check out the 
new feature

    What Is PureOS? A Look at Purism's OS for Laptops and Phones

PureOS is a Linux distro that powers all Purism laptops and smartphones. 
If you purchase a Librem 5 (or a Librem 5 USA), you can run PureOS on 
your phone as well.

PureOS is one of the relatively few Linux distros to receive an 
endorsement from the Free Software Foundation, which means it doesn't 
contain any closed-source code, even at the firmware level. Read the 
full story in MakeUseOf 
<https://www.makeuseof.com/what-is-pureos-purism/> here.
