@lispi314 @maumau @fluffery @kkarhan @BryanGreyson It is still closed source firmware if it can't be updated, and closed source hardware doesn't actually matter any less than closed source firmware. It's very arbitrary to claim that not being able to update it due to blocking the update mechanism makes it hardware rather than firmware. It's often possible to undo how it was blocked and still update it anyway. Librem 5 has certain components unable to be updated via OS but they can be flashed.
