I really want to start a mutual aid service where I give people free tech, like Google Pixels pre-loaded with GrapheneOS, but I haven’t seen many examples of how mutual aid works with expensive stuff. Does anyone have any ideas of how to equitably distribute such phones?

    There are various routes, the preffered is growing and creating the food, drugs or produce in the community because that doesn’t support big businesses and needs less funds but you could also buy from smaller businesses if you have the funds. If people in the community already make or grow these things and are willing to contribute to mutual aid then that is a bonus, so basically just ask if anyone has enough of that thing to contribute it to the community.

    Here is a link to a video that could help or is at least interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlF-ZvRHa2o
