That is already out there too, with Purism Librem laptops.

The commenter you're replying to would be better off giving his money to a company that puts privacy (and FOSS) above all else, instead of trying to bribe a lost cause (let's not forget about the 3 times Lenovo has been caught with nasty factory-installed malware on their consumer laptops).

Here's the Librem laptop homepage: https://puri.sm/products/

Purism is a joke - they rely on binary blobs like everybody else. It's an overpriced laptop with a fancy marketing campaign - might as well buy a Lenovo.

I think they were referring to the part where it says
