Jolla crowdsourced a tablet in 2014, blew by their initial goal, then delayed and delayed and eventually canceled the project claiming they would try to offer refunds. They refunded half of the contributions of most of the backers and then pocketed the other half, over $1M. I don’t know if their new phone is anti-big-tech or not, and I’m all for alternatives to Android and iOS, but this is not a company I can trust.
