Help Fairphone 2

Hi. Does any of the Fairphones have Broadcom BCM43xx chips on them?

Don’t know if the affected chips are used in Fairphone. But I don’t worry too much as I expect there will be an update with July security patches soon (as in every month).

Fairphone 2 uses Qualcomm hardware for wireless communication and thus should not be affected this time.
