(Apple) monitor & control our daily life through proprietary Mobile Services we carry in almost every pocket • The same vendors decide in a black-box backend which apps are regarded allowed to be installed by the endusers • Public Services: parking, transport, home deliveries, banking, and even national ID & emergency apps – are all tied to proprietary BigTech Mobile Services • Almost every push notification, map query, payment, and app store purchase are routed through proprietary BigTech service • Integration of proprietary AI to the OS’es explodes the issue way beyond what we have seen ever so far!
lot to see it as a picture and make a commercial product • microG: a very well established and EU-funded open source re-implementation of Google Mobile Services • Aurora Store: a well established open source fasade to Google Play catalogue of apps. Allows anonymous login • Operating Systems: desktop Linux distros (OpenSUSE, Fedora, Ubuntu…), mobile Linux distros (Sailfish OS, Ubuntu Touch, PureOS…), Android forks (GrapheneOS, eOS…) • Office & collaboration: LibreOffice, Jitsi meet, NextCloud suite, Matrix, Signal, Open-Xchange, Proton etc… • Smartphone vendors: Fairphone, Jolla, Shiftphone, Volla, Librem 5, PinePhone
open source re-implementation of Google Mobile Services • API calls to proprietary services are re-routed to open alternatives whenever possible => e.g. requests for Google Maps map tiles are re-routed automatically to MabLibre / OpenStreet Maps • Not visible for the app => does not require the original app developer • End user gets the same service: I just want to park my car!

Nokia develops MeeGo Nokia chooses Microsoft Jolla is born Gradual loss of control New Jolla is born Nokia builds MeeGo — the most advanced mobile Linux platform of its time. Nokia partners with Microsoft. MeeGo is killed. The Nokia N9 ships — and is immediately cancelled. Former Nokia engineers found Jolla. License MeeGo, rename to Sailfish OS. First Jolla Phone ships 2013. €1M/month burn, no major VC. Control shifts to investors with different agendas. Founders acquire IP, assets and personnel through restructuring. 100% Finnishowned. Clean re-start. 20 years of European mobile OS development Sailfish OS is the only surviving non-BigTech mobile operating system. Only four commercial mobile OS remain in the world: Apple iOS, Google Android, Huawei HarmonyOS — and Sailfish OS. This position took 20 years to build and cannot be easily replicated Jolla Group Ltd. CONFIDENTIAL
