Silence is golden? No, silence is waiting to make headlines.

On May 20, Trump’s mobile was reported to have suffered a serious user data leak, involving personal information such as customers’ email addresses and mailing addresses. The data is still publicly accessible, and credit card numbers have not been leaked. Silence from the official toward the media and users has raised doubts about delivery capability and basic security. Since the project was launched, controversy has been constant: it has shifted from promising “Made in America” to “Designed with American values,” and is suspected of rebranding older HTC phones, with pre-order volumes far below expectations.
