Based on what I've read about the ras pi hardware, without any info here, I'd guess all these smaller devices have secret blob images and use of undisclosed or nonpublic apis from the hardware makers, and they can't disclose them. We should reverse engineer them, get the hardware makers to disclose them. I've further read one reason for this is wanting to control their hardware, but also because there can be patent encumbrances about capabilities, not disclosing apis hides that. Of course these are problems the gpl wants to fight too.
