šŸ”’ Privacy-Hardened Lenovo ThinkPad T470s with Libreboot


This ThinkPad T470s has been professionally flashed with Libreboot 26.01 "Magnanimous Max", eliminating proprietary firmware, Intel Management Engine backdoors, and giving you 100% control over your hardware.

Perfect for privacy advocates, security researchers, journalists, developers, and anyone who values software freedom.


āœ… WHY LIBREBOOT?

• NO Intel Management Engine (IME) - No remote access vulnerabilities or backdoors
• 100% Free/Libre BIOS - Fully auditable, open-source firmware you can trust
• Enhanced Security - HyperThreading disabled by default (additional security measure per Libreboot guidelines)
• SeaBIOS Payload - Familiar boot experience with maximum compatibility
• Your Hardware, Your Rules - No proprietary blobs, no vendor lock-in

This is one of the few modern ThinkPads that can run Libreboot.

šŸ”‹ BATTERIES

Both batteries are currently not charging and remain at 0%. This is likely due to being left fully discharged for an extended period. I’m unsure how to revive them, but they may still be functional since they retain the following reported capacities:

Due to the current battery condition, the laptop powers on only when connected to the charger
