With Flipper One, we’re reimagining what a Linux cyberdeck can be — it’s a huge project. We’re opening up the development process and asking the community for help.
I wish their stuff didn’t get as widely marketed as it did. They seem like luxury little hardware toys and exactly like something that can stimulate me back into making more projects. But they are universally known as “those hacking things for thieves”, so even importing one can get me into hot water probably.
Nice step up, so this is the Pi Zero one if the Zero was the Pico one (try saying that three times quickly). Cool
Depends on where, they’re legal in most countries despite their rep. Apparently the UK hates them though. They’re legal in Canada again however.

The dumb thing is, a lot of the videos that went viral about the Zero were fake BS like “watch me steal this car with a flipper zero” or similar.
Sure you can utilize it in pen testing, but you can also utilize a hammer. Doesn’t mean either are designed for illicit purposes.
