We should have libre software hdds and ram.

Can you elaborate on that a bit? I don't understand what you mean.

It's the same principle as explained by bunnie in the video. HDD and RAM process all the data. But they have hard/soft programming which proces that data.

If you can't audit the hard/soft programming then you don't know if your data is being read/copied/manipulated.

More and more hardware is using CPU to function. And thus have soft programming (firrmware) which can be altered.
