    Minifree is between double to triple the price of the same laptop on eBay. Libreboot is strictly an ideological matter, it doesn’t help with privacy if software installed isn’t configured a certain way and also what software is installed.

    BIOS is not the bacldoor is. Also, if you don’t build your on router, you can’t garauntee who your router is sending packets to. Also DNS makes a different. Libreboot does not provide the protection think it does.

    It doesn’t help that Libreboot laptops are at least 10 years old. Those are some low resolution LCD screens compared the LED and full hi-def.
