Is PHNTM One open source? Not in the usual sense. PHNTM One's own code ships on your device as readable source under the PHNTM One Source License: you're meant to open it and check that it does what we say, but it isn't an open-source license. It stands on open models and open-source software, listed below with their licenses, and you have full SSH access to the Debian system underneath.
