Amazing link, thanks. Hardware backdoors.
"Built on top of free software" (coreboot) in 4 weeks. Really, really,
really hard to detect as malicious. 230 motherboards affected. Not dependent
on an operating system. So much for free software.
Laws would be nice, except plausible deniability and non-attribution would
make enforcement near impossible.
This is good to know, sad as it is to see.
Maybe the best hardware in terms of freedom, is no hardware at all. Or at
least no hardware that is ever connected to the internet, a never updated
separate machine. Hadn't been thinking in that direction. Thanks.
