First rate FUD in the article

"A GPLv3 Android phone, with all the decryption keys available to any user on demand, is a non-starter. No manufacturer will make such an insecure-by-design device. No telco would put the stability of its network at such risk. No informed consumer would want one."

Excuse me while I go and heave. So any device that is not locked down by the manufacturer is "insecure-by-design", and puts the stability of the network at risk? I guess that means all the linux servers on the internet need to go.

It *would* be a non-starter, however, to the telcos' profit model to give consumers full choice as to what software they run on their devices. I also admit that given full choice, some consumers would make bad choices and subject themselves to security risks. But the idea that only locked-down phones can be secure mobile computing devices is preposterous, as nearly all readers of this site must already know.
