Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Can EU please make an open source phone?
We have linux for computers, but we need a "linux" for phones (yes I know Android uses Linux Kernel, I'm talking about like a Libre Non-Google OS)
I have another question: why do some eras seem to be so free for technology to evolve and open to new entrants to create their designs and mods and why do other eras feel like traps set by investors and enclosures for consumers? The 80s/90s felt great for technology, but today it feels like they all want to take anyone's capacity to do anything beyond being a dumb paying consumer away...like they're covering all possible outcomes to come out enslaving everyone. Why didn't they do that in the 80s/90s? Am I looking at the past with rose-tinted glasses?
I'm holding my breath for the pinephone to be ready for primetime. I check in on it every so often to see what the current buzz is.
Does Graphene OS fit that description?
It only works on Google Pixel phones.
There are other operating systems, and some more open (but more expensive) manufacturers like Fairphone and PinePhone.
Thank you for answering my question.
