You can have a hard drive encrypted thinkpad running linux and use a VPN all the time, but none of that matters if your processor is compromised. There should be a libreboot general.
ohh come on no one cares? i guess time for me to tinfoil alone

It's discussed here and there. Problem is open hardware is far more expensive and uncommon
>>58738936
Because there's no escape. You either deny yourself anything resembling modern hardware or accept that 3 letter agencies' cock.
>libreboot general
libreboot can fuck off with their SJW shit

What CPUs are compromised and how?
Last I checked even NSA couldn't get around TOR or Veracrypt no matter what hardware you run. You're not talking about management engine right?
I'm not concerned about the NSA hacking my shit, I'm concerned about a pajeet breaking into my house and stealing my harddrive.

Intel ME especially in Lenovo Thinkpads. Look it up.
>>58740551
Then use coreboot and get rid of the intel me.
>>58740546
AMD?

i prefer to just shitpost
If an Intel ME backdoor is discovered, Intel dies. Intel does not have an NSA backdoor in ME, You'd be able to detect ****some**** network activity via an external firewall / capturing device.
By all means, point to some odd network connection to the outside world with ME.

It's a subject brought up every now and then. Usually over shadowed by the newest graphics card or the new Macbook.
Intel AMT or AMD DASH is in everything. Even ARM has something, TrustZone.
Intel is CIA niggers. Also AMD and even ARM chips often have these management engines.
We need new hardware without this shit.
