Why I Won’t Review or Recommend the Light Phone III (And Why That Matters)

I won’t be reviewing or recommending the Light Phone III, and here’s why. This device, like many AOSP-based phones, locks users out of essential customization and accessibility features, even though we own the hardware.

-- Accessibility -- Without the ability to modify, many users are left behind.
-- Ownership -- If I buy a device, I should have full control over it.
-- AOSP’s Broken Promise -- Open-source should empower users, not restrict them.

This isn’t just about one phone; it’s about a trend in tech that prioritizes control over freedom. Let’s discuss why this matters and what we should demand instead.
