For cell phones, we need a cell phone whose software is free.
OpenMoko tried to do this, but did not get it done well. I hope
someone else will try. However, this involves manufacturing hardware,
so the FSF is not in a position to do it.
There are people who want to use reverse engineering to make free
drivers for some Android phones. I don't see much connection between
this and Emacs.
Even if all the software in a phone is free, it can still
be used to track you, so people who are against Big Brother
will still decide not to use them.
