Google is bad. We do not endorse them.

+ It's merely a coincidence that libreboot can support this hardware, with some issues (see sections below). + While Google does hire a lot of coreboot developers, it's not the case that these laptops can be used + in freedom (libreboot) because Google cares about user freedom. It's just a lucky coincidence. Nothing more. +

+

+ Chromebooks are designed (from the factory) to actually coax the user into using + proprietary web services + (SaaSS) that invade the user's privacy. Google is even a member of the PRISM program, as outlined + by Edward Snowden. See notes about ChromeOS below. The libreboot project recommends + that the user replace the default ChromeOS with a less evil distribution. +

+

+ We also use the same argument for the MacBook and the ThinkPads that are supported in libreboot. + Those laptops are supported, in spite of Apple and Lenovo, companies which are actually hostile + to the free software movement. +
