I can't believe this attitude exists. Under Nokia, things were locked up and held back because Nokia chose to do that. Jolla have been clear from the outset that they are unable to release a firmware blob because they didn't consider the licensing problems of that when they were deciding how to structure the firmware.

They are a small company. They make mistakes, but have the rare openness to admit them, as in this case and with the FM radio antenna. I really don't know what your complaining is supposed to achieve, except attempt to undermine what little support they have.

If you want to switch over to some doomed fork of android that is utterly at the mercy of Google, then fine. But please leave us in our little dream of a GNU-based mobile OS that might be a little more free than that.
