okay, i’ll try:
not from the Video but from my memory of this Drama:
Purism makes Linux phones. its Librem 5 was an absolute success on KickStarter and they raised an absurd amount of money.
they still haven’t started large-scale production now, a large amount of time (talking about years and years) later. only the first few batches of phones were delivered
refunds are basically: “you want your money back? haha lol fuck you”
Moreover, the person in question ordered from their website and it failed to ship within over a year, they called for a refund and were told “wait for the shipping date to cancel then we can process that”. So they waited, and then were told “we have a no refund policy at this time” (and still no phone)
So, care to explain the video for those of us who can’t watch it right now?
no 🗿

Yay, summary!
Wait, that’s so shady of them to do something like this. I wonder which OEM they used, because that’s just insane incompetence.
