    Even if it’s verified not to spy on you today, they’re all one forced update away from always listening and reporting back, either to corporate or a hacker. Don’t trust code you can’t see.

        Alter the hardware? The firmware would just need to be updated silently. No piece of computer hardware doesn’t have some form of software running at a low level.

          Again, the power cut & indicator light are implemented in hardware. there is no software running on a single-transistor circuit.

            You never said that to me. I had to figure out what your talking about through your comment history with other people.

            Do you trust that? Have you opened one up and followed the traces?
