I spent over 100k sats on 2 pieces of junk good for nothing but a landfill, because of retailers and other websites and random people lying about LoRa mesh protocols being “open source.”

The goal was already to spread the word about lies these retailers and other related sites spread, e.g. gaslighting users about end-to-end encryption, but there’s no point using the network to spread the word about the lie of being open source. It’s a fool’s errand, the corporations already scammed my money out of me and they’ll just use me to make even more money while I try to tell people to stop wasting the money.

So now I have a SenseCap and a Wio Tracker L1 Pro shipping to me for nothing except to scrap for parts like the batteries, and throw the malware transceiver/computer parts in the garbage so nobody can use them to spread this piece of shit malware cult.

Have fun downvoting/removing/banning me, to the majority here moronic enough to side with the scammers even after reading the truth.

    I understand you are angry but posting “you are lying” is unnecessarily hostile.

    Many people, like me, are uninformed on LoRa and meshtastic.

    I literally have no idea about it other than fluffy articles and YouTubers.

    I do know that Linux is called OpenSource despite relying on closed source binary blobs for virtually all real world implementations.

      There are many linux distributions without blobs or that let you sort these out.
