I'm still poking around on the backend of this product but if any fellow nerds have input, opinions, or just something to drop please chime in.

Ha ha, no. Semi-proprietary hardware created by a small startup company. Running a forked version of Android that isn't open source and won't allow you to even install 3rd party apps, let alone sideload your own apps. The company was created by the former founder of Blackwater. They supposedly host their servers in international water so they aren't bound by any government's regulation of any kind.

But you're just going to blindly trust them with your privacy? :-)
