    Most SBCs would be too large to fit inside headphones, lol. And tbh, I do not get the RPI hate that pops up in a lot of places recently.

      they hired a surveillance officer, disgustingly trolled people trying to raise concern over it, their CEO said that the fediverse was using discord to run a hate campaign against the organization.

        Why do I doubt that if the Fediverse was going to run a hate campagin, they’d use Discord

          There probably are many reasons to doubt the likelyhood of using Discord, lol.

          Then again, what query would I have to use on Searx (or any other search engine) to find more info whether any official from the Pi Foundation would have made those claims in the first place?

        Not sure on the veracity of all that, but I doubt that a company (or rather their PR team) would “troll” people.

            I have read some news on it a while ago and I still think everything got a bit overblown. I do not remember at this point ( I got bigger stuff to care about RN, like possibly most of us do right now), but was that officer not even actually hired but rather a community contributor instead? Plus, surveillance does not have to be against citizens but could also be against organised crime rings. I do understand that cops can be proverbial bastards (especially in the US and certain developing nations and dictatorships), but are some activists and netizens not overreacting a bit?

            And what is your reply* for kind of comment anyway, after your showcase of maturity (/s) when calling something more akin to a potential (massive) PR blunder, “trolling”.

            *Your “have it your way” remark.
