There's also an iptables-centric method:

Either way, this is a good model for semi-trusted things that ought not to
be allowed
writing this so people realize that they aren't forced to use
some convoluted tool to flexibly manage networking. You can cover a wide
range of situations with good old ifupdown.

dismayed at some trusted staff members leaving the FSF. All of this takes
the focus off of free software, and the people directly involved are
hurting. Frankly, it makes me hope that my kids are able to forge a better
world than what I've managed so far.

want mob justice, we need a judiciary. We don't have one set up to rule on

So, there's the problem. What are possible answers?

, it's clearly not a fly-by-night operation - it would be a
way for Gigabyte to gain credibility and expand their customer base for
effectively no effort.
The fwupd folk would be quite happy to start working with Gigabyte, and
have, as I understand it, reached out to them already, but Gigabyte needs
nput | grep Synaptics

Note that you *don't* have to parse out the ID. I can say, as an example:
xinput disable "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad
...and it'll do the right thing, far more simply.

ZFS encryption, both with or without mirroring, on either UEFI or legacy
systems. (It's flexible. It'll even install Debian or Ubuntu.) (It'll make
the most sense for me to ship instructions for a local repository first.)
That said, I've stopped using unbound and I'm using straight BIND as my
local resolver lately. It's pleasant.
