Commodore's Callback 8020: A Flip Phone That Blocks Social Media and Browsers

Summary

Commodore has announced the Callback 8020, a flip phone running Sailfish OS (a Linux-based system by Jolla) that blocks social media and browsers by design. The phone supports over 99% of Android apps through a compatibility layer, including Spotify, Signal, and WhatsApp. Commodore emphasizes a privacy-focused approach where "the customer is not the product," and plans to consult with the Callback community over the next few months to determine fair and safe implementation.
