Will there ever be Libre KiCAD files for the pinephone?
#1
I am political activist so having a secure and privacy respecting phone is critical for me where I am concerned about:
a) The modem backdoor mentioned in https://www.pine64.org/2020/01/24/settin...nceptions/

> The LTE modem on the PinePhone is a ‘black box’, and runs its own Linux system internally. This includes all the proprietary modules (blobs) needed to run the actual cellular radios.

So preferably i want to review the routes and change the design as needed.

b) Supply chain attack

-> i want to fabricate the PCB myself.

+ I am Free Software/Hardware developer so i want to have the option to learn how it works, use, share and improve it.
