#### Telecommunications with Québec's Values

## About Us

### What is TeleQom?

The TeleQom Project, a Québec non-profit, is an ideal. We are attempting to restore ethics and morals within the applications all of us use on a daily basis. From your favorite social platform, online shopping, email or even messaging, almost all of them contain spying software. Robots read your emails and your messages, some even listen to you talk. In our opinion, this is unacceptable and should be illegal but you accepted these terms before using those applications and devices and that is why the law is powerless at the moment. Since we don't have viable alternatives, we follow these technology giants with bad intentions. It is in response to this severe lack of humanity that TeleQom was born.

### Libre Software

TeleQom embraces a philosophy that has been around for quite some time, we use only Libre/Free Software. To make it simple, a program is much like a food recipe. Libre Software grants the public access to it's source code (the recipe, that we call our Qode) to audit and discover security flaws, modify or improve with the only condition of sharing back what was improved. Proprietary software on the other hand, is the complete opposite. They hide how it works, and forbid auditing their source code. It is obviously much harder to discover what it truly does with your information.

### The Real Difference

Our projects are designed in such a way that it is impossible for us to spy on you. What you do in your private life does not concern us. Proprietary artifical intelligence programs can already anticipate your behavior, modifiy your habits and the way you think by simply using this data that we all think harmless. Companies like Cambridge Analytica already interfered in the United-States elections, and this is only the beginning. Pegasus gives unlimited access to those willing to pay to the complete virtual life of anyone with the help of flaws in software. It is now urgent to get rid of those chains, and that is where TeleQom comes in.

### Telecommunication

It's not pretty when you take a closer look at how these big corporations use us. But instead of admitting defeat, we chose to remedy this situation with whatever freedom we still have left. We will start by securing our telecommunications (email, social, messaging, videoconference and telephone). Then, Qommerce will help fund the infrastructure and development of our projects. Finally, a voting application, called PolitiQ that will give the power back to the people. Keep in mind, TeleQom does not sell your data and is a non-profit, so donations are necessary to its survival. We do what we can to offer our projects for free, but it is not easy. All profits generated by the following services are invested in the development of our projects!

## Our Services

#### Development

A web site, a mobile application, an online shopping application, name it. TeleQom uses Libre Software as much as possible to build your project. This results in an application that respects its users, is safer, more stable and much cheaper.

#### Repairs

In the same way, we love to give your devices a second life. Broken phone display? Laptop not holding charge? Computer doesn't start or is slower than before? We can fix all of that!

#### Support

Paid support is also available for most technology related issues you may be facing. At TeleQom, we like to play around with techonology a lot. Could be your wi-fi network, your browser is out-of-date, you can't update apps on your phone, anything IT really. Just reach out to us, we might be able to help you! :)

#### Installation

It is now possible to replace most proprietary malware with Libre Software. Your computer's operating system can be replaced by a GNU/Linux such as Linux Mint. A selection of mobile devices are supported by GrapheneOS, and it will be possible to switch to a completely Libre alternative like the Librem 5 or the Pine Phone. Libre Office is a great alternative for all types of documents. For image manipulation, GIMP is also a great choice.
