Looking for a 7-9 inch netbook

| I thinking of buying a tiny netbook like this: https://touchstudio.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/vaio-complete-linux-mint.jpg

I'll install Alpine with a light window manager on it and use it as a smartphone, because Android and iOS is privacy hell

What would you say about such an idea?


| how would you call anyone


| How about buying an actual smartphone with privacy friendly hardware and OS. Examples:
- fairphone 3 (it's modular and made if fair traded ressources)
- librem 5 by purism (it has hardware kill switches for wifi, mic, cam and phone)?

Beside they are compatible with privacy friendly android roms such as lineage os, you can also install gnu/linux distros, especially pure os on the librem.

I use VoIP with linphone. I have to pay for an account by a service provider that supports the official VoIP standards (unlike "skype").
It requires internet connection, but it also works via mobile internet, which also costs money.

| Or you could just tune down your freetardism and choose more viable options.
