Since we’re talking about the MM1, which is often presented as a huge
step forward in terms of freedom, can you clarify a thing: is it 100%
free yet?

MM1 is based on a FPGA, a technology I have only a vague understanding
of, but AFAIK you need both a phisical FPGA chip and a logical
description of the chip you want the FPGA to emulate, right? So, is this
logical description already completely free, ie. I can download it and
tweak it? Is the FPGA chip free, ie. I can get the schematics and build
one on my own?

Resistance is futile, you will be garbage collected.
