any chance people could click "+" on the "submission" button on this? the FCC's screwed up - ignored comments from a bunch of experts - and gone ahead "oh nooo nooo problemmm, nooobody will just lock down the entire embedded OS" and of course that's exactly what TP-Link has done, because it's the easiest thing to do. this applies to embedded boards just as much. it's now a legal requirement to DRM-lock the *entire OS* - kernel, bootloader, OS - *everything* - on embedded boards that happen to have WIFI modules on them. l. --- crowd-funded eco-conscious hardware: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68 _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list [email protected] http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to [email protected]
