I think You misunderstood this a little bit! The stupid are the journalists, whose are not doing their job! If the TV say "This is the first project to create an fair phone", I think this is not correct! But the most people believe in such statements. This is not "fair" for existing projects! Ok, the "fair phone guys" should not start an new project, because if everyone starts an new "extreme small" project no one has a chance to survive (also cause of lack of money and resources/ developer). So these project have to become connected, to reach more customers, to survive and to force the bigger manufacturers to become more "fair" and "green". But "fair", I my point of view, is not only to be fair against the workers in mines and factories, it should also be fair to the customers! Especially the support life cycle is not fair for customers and nature. In an earlier TV broadcast (I think it was on "ARD"), they blamed about the 2 year software/ update support of cheaper smart-phones. If You have to buy an new smart-phone every two years to get new software, I think this is not fair, too. And this is not good for nature......to throw away an working phone.....
