[Trisquel-users] Antwort: How will libreboot deal with Meltdown and Spectre?

@jxself I do not agree with you and don' t think your solution is a solution  
that is practical.
The first thing is, that it is in my opinion a mistake to assume that only  
proprietary software can contain malicious code. You can also say disconnect  
your machine from the internet and you are safe.
The second thing is, that most sites in the internet are not useable without  
JavaScript. There may be people for whom it is enough to to use just the few  
sites that work without js or have open code.
But even if there is open source software you have to review the code every  
time before you execute it to be sure that it does no bad things.
