A pretty sobering list. Some of the language is charged according to some folks, but saw no errors per se. None of it is news if you've been paying attention

A pretty sobering list. Some of the language is charged according to some folks, but saw no errors per se. None of it is news if you've been paying attention for a few years.
I no longer need to worry about Windows, but now wondering what to do about UEFI. I've heard about things like coreboot, but doesn't seem to be offered by mainstream manufacturers. Not sure I wanna risk bricking my machine. Has there been any recent progress here?
- sakras 4y agoI think it's difficult on Intel to be fully free because of Intel ME. As far as I know, it's not possible to fully be rid of it, so you'll always have some proprietary blob running a possible backdoor. If you want to be fully free, you may be interested in the Raptor Talos II, which is based on OpenPOWER and has free firmware. It is pretty pricey however.
