    No they are producing more than people need. People are buying what they want.

      And I think people should buy fairphones. It’s a great idea and it needs to be a compelling phone to get more people to buy it.

      The problem is that ethics alone as a reason to buy is shit because it’s better to go used ethically.

      It’s the reusable grocery bag of phones as long as it’s not comparable to other phones.

        Oh yeah for sure. I want to see fairpjone succeed but you’re right about the ethical argument.

        To be super clear, definitely don’t think all this is up to the consumer to change, more along government and systems probably.
