@[email protected] They want you to use an OS which doesn't provide firmware updates and therefore doesn't protect you from serious known vulnerabilities. The firmware is still present when using an OS not updating it. Pretending as if the hardware and firmware isn't closed source by not updating the firmware simply harms users. They're a group known for having nonsensical, inconsistent beliefs and spreading misinformation/spin to promote them. Stop getting info from charlatans.

They say that GNU is spreading misinformation and “stop getting info from charlatans”?

      Sure and that’s the ideal, but as it currently stands the FSF would rank hardware like this:

      1. Fully open source
      2. Proprietary flashed in factory and impossible to replace
      3. Proprietary and can be updated/replaced

      This makes no sense for security, stability or ideological reasons.
