Description
Peter Waterman:
"Firefox OS is part of a new breed of alternative, open source mobile operating systems that aim to take on the big corporations.
It’s been created by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation and in our view, it’s a very big deal.
Firefox OS phones are already available for sale in a number of countries (Spain, Germany, a few Latin American countries) and will soon be available where you live.
They’re extremely cheap, and making apps that run on them is cheaper and easier than doing them for Apple and Android products.
Firefox OS is part of a broader open source revolution that includes such things as the Ubuntu Touch project — and even Fairphone, the first attempt to create an “ethical” mobile phone that, among other things, respects workers’ rights."
