librem5 is a binary blob provider. and you mostly fell for a scam.
they signed the same NDA as other OEM.
your so called open source drivers are full of binary blobs, which ironically are just the chip manufacturer reference implementation code compiled, with little else.
librem5 just shouts the lie louder. it's as closed source as any other device. like raspberrypi in terms of drivers.
...and I'm not going into the illegal investment scam librem company spams every one of their customers.
- fsflover 3y agoDid FSF also fall for a scam? Where are the binary blobs in PureOS, show us please. Yes, firmware is proprietary, but it's the best we have. You fell for the security nihilism: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27897975 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27897975 There is no scam in Purism. I received all my devices, and they're as advertised.
- 1oooqooq 3y agothe scam is the illegal investment emails they keep sending to everyone who purchased from them. about fsf. well, the least worse is still just the least worse. doesn't make it magically open source.
- fsflover 3y agoAny source showing the illegality of the investment? > doesn't make it magically open source It does make the OS FLOSS, which is all they say.
