I’d like to buy a Fairphone, but the missing IP68 rating is concerning to me. I really don’t want to have to worry about my phone dying if I get into a rainstorm for example, especially while traveling.

The climate impact of the poorest is nothing compared to the pollution of rich countries anyways and the same is true for factory farming. The money will likely be used for much more environmentally destructive things now instead. There’s nothing positive in this from any progressive perspective.
