Keexy Box

Regain control of the Internet with KeexyBox

Make browsing safe for your children, block ads, limit data collection and browse anonymously.

Parental control

With KeexyBox you can have parental control over all the devices in your home network. It allows you to define Internet access times, block sites inappropriate for children and also filter results on search engines such as Google, Bing and YouTube.

Blocking of ads and telemetry

KeexyBox allows advertising to be blocked, including in mobile applications. You can also limit the telemetry data sent by your devices (computers, tablets, smartphones, game consoles or connected objects, etc.)

Anonymous browsing

With KeexyBox you can choose to browse anonymously on the Web. Anonymous connection mode prevents your Internet service provider from knowing the sites you visit and prevents the sites visited from identifying you by the IP address. You can thus use the Web to obtain information on sensitive subjects such as health care without any link being able to be made between you and what you have visited.

Browsing statistics and personalisation of sites to be blocked

With KeexyBox you are provided with statistics on your use of the Internet. You can view the sites visited and those blocked and base yourself on the browsing history to improve your filtering lists.

Open source project

The KeexyBox software is distributed under an open GPLv3 licence. We chose this option because it can be used to protect your privacy. We therefore considered it legitimate for its source code to be accessible to everyone. The KeexyBox software is also free because we believe that no price can be put on protecting children from the Internet.

Ubuntu Appliance

Last update 2023

https://ubuntu.com/appliance

What is an Ubuntu Appliance?

An Ubuntu Appliance turns a computer into a specialised appliance for home or work. It is a system disk image for a PC or Raspberry Pi, built for security and simplicity. Ubuntu Appliances have strong privacy policies and long term security maintenance guarantees. They are published by companies and open source communities, who follow the Ubuntu code of conduct and appliance guidelines, together with Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu.

Maemo-Leste

Last update 2023

https://maemo-leste.github.io/

Welcome to the Maemo Leste website; Maemo Leste continues the legacy of Maemo. We aim to provide a free Maemo experience on mobile phones and tablets like the Nokia N900, Motorola Droid 4, Allwinner Tablets Raspberry Pi2b and 3b and more.

Feel free to join us on irc.freenode.net #maemo-leste and also join our mailing list if you're interested.

Maemo Leste is based on Devuan Beowulf(Debian Buster) and all the "supported" devices ship with recent Linux (mainline-based) kernels.

The project is almost usable as a daily driver for your device, Maemo Leste is currently in development phase and we are actively searching for developers. For some devices, we have development images available - such as the Nokia N900; for an impression see Screenshots.

So far we have set up devuan/debian repositories for our packages, with builds for armhf, amd64, aarch64. We have FOSS replacements for all included previously closed maemo packages (and we have no closed packages in use), further building on the Maemo community efforts to replace all closed bits by open software.
