      If you have an interest in controlling the hardware that you own, I'd keep an eye on @Puri_sm (some of their @coreboot_org-related blogposts are very interesting), and @RaptorEng/@RaptorCompSys who develop/sell #OpenPOWER hardware. For people, @tekwendell @marcan42 @justinrwlynn

      Just watch out for @Puri_sm 's tendency to over-exaggerate the owner controllability of their hardware. Many of their products require some form of Intel ME or have other owner-hostile characteristics.

      Indeed. I wish @puri_sm the best when it comes to making the best of a less than ideal position with generally excellent engineering but they do have a tendency to over exaggerate their solution to those fundamental design flaws. A soft foundation makes for a shakey skyscraper.

      Yeah, @Puri_sm do good work, but they are unfortunately held back by their goal of wanting to get FSF "Respects your Freedom" certification (which does anything but). I've ranted about this on Twitter before. They are having to engineer horrible anti-user hacks to meet it.

      On a more positive note, a couple of times I've basically said "nobody does open X", someone said "@RaptorEng do" and @RaptorEng immediately followed up with a Git repo link. <3

      Sigh...over-exaggerating is a nice way to say false advertisement. They will /never/ be able to deliver a libreboot machine, and the first machines they shipped delivered on none of their promises. They admittedly do a great job with UI and education for secure computing.

      They're working on a dead platform, I wish they'd see that. They have to reverse engineer each gen. of CPU to partially free it of IntelME (which they'll then advertise as fully free), so the machines will always be years behind. And with Blackbird's out, they're not cheaper.

      I was mostly thinking of their phone, which has a decent chance of getting close to fully free (as far as the AP goes anyway) but the way they're dealing with the remaining blobs is deliberately *anti-freedom* because that's what RYF certification requires.

      Basically the FSF says if you make blobs invisible, immutable, un-auditable, and therefore un-freeable then they might as well not exist by their definition, which is hilariously backwards - I want all my blobs in /lib/firmware where I can see them and mess with them.

          FSF guys might not fully understand what libre firmware means. @Puri_sm has done some good job to make skylake-based machine as "libre" as possible. But some parts of x86 e.g: microcode, ME/SGX can't be audited in nature stops anyone who try to go further to build the libre fw.

          Our best advice would be to contact them and try to educate. Especially with recent developments, we need to be able to present a relatively united front to preserve true computing freedom,
