In a prior topic, I read that Raspberry Pi devices have lack-of-freedom
problems, and to check out beagleboards such as beaglebone black.
However, for beaglebone black wireless, a little hunting shows that the TI
wireless chip uses binary blob firmware:
https://github.com/beagleboard/beaglebone-black-wireless/tree/master/firmware
http://git.ti.com/cgit/cgit.cgi/wilink8-wlan/18xx-ti-utils.git/tree/hw/firmware
So as an alternative, going for standard beaglebone black + freedom-friendly
atheros wireless chip, we then see there is a TI Sitara™ AM3358 ARM®
Cortex™-A8 processor in that beaglebone black.
Are there any lack-of-freedom issues with this processor or beaglebone black
rev-c?
