@bob makes sense. It's always seemed like a blisteringly stupid idea to let hardware companies shoehorn proprietary blobs into kernel space
-
@bob you may as well email all your passwords, private keys etc to every company that has a blob in the kernel, in case they miss one
-
@bob or swap out vanilla #Linux for #Linux-libre or use a distro that does like !trisquel or #Parabola ...

@strypey a keylogger which then sends everything to some other domain is a scarily easy kernel module to write. You can find things like that on Github. So yes it is possible that blobs could do things like that.
