## Rational

### Security matters

The biggest issue in terms of security is the lack of updates. Your android smartphone will be updated by your provider (if there are updates at all) for one or two years. LineageOS provides much longer updates. The oldest device we support (a htcOne) is now getting updates for more than 8 years.

### Privacy matters

As it is widely known that Google tries to collect data from all possible sources. These collected data gives a incredible power to the collector. We think, giving google all this power is harmful. We will do our best to stopp google from collecting data from our lives.
