hello,

i just discovered, some apps desire access to DMI data, precisely to
/sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/

In the case of audio software i can understand it may need to know on
what hardware it runs.

but a web browser? why would a webbrowser need to know the bios version
or computer model name?

the one who really benefits from such information is a possble attacker,
thus for a web browser i would deny access to this data.

what do you think?
