Idunno, Xeon Phi, their GPUs since about 2007 (though a lot better recently), good cooperation and documentation with their NICs, direct participation in both major open compiler toolchains, all the stuff that 01.org lists... I think they're doing pretty well with open (aside from the products themselves, but that's kinda the point of having a company).

Frankly Intel has done an adequate to good job of providing open source software to interact with all of their hardware for as long as I've been computering. They're the one vendor that has never told me to install a proprietary driver.

You can’t even use their main product without loading in opaque binary blobs and agreeing to a backdoor.

That's true, that's my greatest gripe with them. It's a major part of why I'm looking to other platforms for my workstation.

That said, you can't escape that with their nearest competitor, so it's a bit of a moot point for now.
