The OS is called Eelo<\/strong>, is based on LineageOS<\/strong> and its main objective is to put the privacy of users ahead. To achieve this, it uses other free software<\/strong> instead of Google Services. Google Play will be replaced by F-Droid<\/strong> and APKPure<\/strong>; Google Services will be replaced by MicroG<\/strong>, DuckDuckGo<\/strong> will be used as a browser and QWant<\/strong> as a search engine. In addition, to prevent tracking by DNS, it will use Quad 9 DNS<\/strong>, which blocks access to malicious sites and is supported by the Global Cyber Alliance<\/strong> (GCA).<\/p>\n Duval assures that Eelo will not yield to commercial interests and that it will be a non-profit project<\/strong>, developed for the public interest. “I think that operating systems and services should be a shared resource because they are infrastructures such as telephony networks, train tracks, and roads,” he explains on Kickstarter.<\/p>\n Ga\u00ebl Duval has already developed a functional prototype<\/strong> and it seems that the community of users is interested in the initiative, since the idea has already harvested twice the funding needed to start developing it.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
