hmm. I don't know much about hardware and didn't realize about people hiding stuff in chips. I keep seeing people recommend this or that company for more open hardware but I guess we're not there yet, since it looks like there's no open manufacturer for some of the components.

Maybe I can look into what the FSF recommends for now. Thanks. Hopefully the situation will improve as more people become aware and interested. There are at least people trying to handle the open hardware issue even if they haven't gotten to all the components yet, so that's good at least.
