We are hosting our 3rd virtual Silicon Salon https://www.SiliconSalon.info on January 18th on the topic of open-source semiconductors and cryptographic security & acceleration needs for the community. Two of our speakers specifically will be talking about open-source approaches for hardware. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/492802494527 — Dylan, there still is some room, do you know someone that might want to present about this?

I'm very interested in the topic, Open Source HW is a space I track closely, but noone speaks for free

Owners controlling what runs on the hardware they buy - radical!

No official comment. Ask them yourself and if they get enough responses, they will have to mention something publically.

Might be more effectively for some analyst to ask during the earnings call 😊

They will have to if they want to sell into Microsoft and Google eventually.

This seems very anti-open-source if it's meant to stop the owners of hardware from running their own code on it, which appears to be the case. Earlier versions of that are why the GPLv3 was written.
