I'm a big fan of attempts to develop free hardware, despite the higher price and other problems (serviceability etc.). But I really hope they'll make a better job with the kill switches than on the Librem laptop.
Firstly there are no labels, so it's unclear which switch is for what, or even the on/off position. Secondly, they've used switches that are entirely unsuitable for exposing on the edge of the laptop - after 1 week of usage one of the switches simply broke off when putting the laptop in a bag, and expect the same thing to happen for the other switches soon.
And it's pretty easy to change the on/off positions this wa, which is a problem because the camera/microphone has no led indicating the position.
