What is /e/OS?
In an era when every minute interaction and detail is tracked by tech giants and advertisers, /e/OS is a privacy haven that doesn’t sacrifice convenience. Built from inception as a user-friendly, fully open-source deGoogled mobile operating system, /e/OS runs Android apps without the drawbacks of intrusive data collection.
Murena not only respects users’ privacy, but also the planet, by offering long support times for devices and even giving a new lease of life to smartphones and tablets no longer supported by their manufacturer ‒ the oldest supported model currently being nine years old (2016). Futhermore, all Murena’s servers are located within the EU and powered entirely by renewable energy.

Users can even share these reports on social media to raise awareness.
In addition, users can now customise app geolocation access, giving them control of which apps see true versus fake locations.
