From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I asked for a refund when they kept delaying shipment of my Librem 5. I was simply denied and that was it. They told me I could still choose to receive the phone, but I don't want it since it's a bad, practically useless product now.
I reported them in my country for it.
Do a chargeback on your card
I think that's an american thing. Besides, that money is long gone since I made the purchase several years ago.
It's a credit card/payment processor thing, i.e. ultimately it's visa/mastercard, but it's up to the bank to offer to individuals. It's often available in other anglophone countries if your talk to your bank but I'm sure in some places they wouldn't do that. But yeah, years ago is too long anyway.
Hmm yeah may depend on the country. If you paid by credit card it might be worth a shot, though. They shouldn’t be rewarded for their bad actions.
They only works within some months. People have waited on Purism for years.
It depends. I’ve heard of some credit card companies doing it for a while after. Years might be hard though :(
That's extremely fucked up.
