Me doing whatever I want with stuff I bought is the definition of ownership.

I'm starting to think that these sort of "CVE bro" posts are part of an intentional campaign by manufacturers trying to hold on to their rent seeking scheme.

The big issue is that there is not a good way for the hardware to tell that the you are the owner and not an attacker.

This is just absurd, dishonest, overly emotive language, built upon sand of the parent argument that people even care about this in the first place.

You aren’t a farmer and your crappy MSI consumer hardware isn’t a tractor.

I don’t agree with that framing.

You can absolutely hide behind security to justify actions that are hostile to users. Companies do it _all the time_.

There is room for both of these to be true.

I am not interested in securing my hardware again changes I want to make.

please tell us what changes you would like to make.

There is likely a way to do that in a secure way. Such as the firmware providing a menu that lets you configure different things.
