Hello, all!

I want to have a completely Free install of Debian, which means I will only be using software packages from the main repo, and will be excluding contrib and non-free from my sources file.

By doing so, I won't be able to install the microcode updates for my computer's CPU. Is this safe, given that these microcode updates reportedly patch up vulnerabilities in the these processors?

Even the Debian wiki (https://wiki.debian.org/Microcode) says that these microcode updates are "not safe to ignore".

Cheers!
