Also see specific post I wrote in [Linux Laptops? System76? Other options? - #9 by dngray](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/linux-laptops-system76-other-options/16557/9).

Unfortunately it is a bit of a case of “you get what you pay for”.

- Libre/firmware don’t tend to do anything particularly for security or privacy.
- Secured core, and vPro supporting chipsets are aimed at business grade laptops and have stronger compliance obligations
- Without firmware updates you can’t expect known vulnerabilities to be fixed.

While we’re not recommending specific models, the aim of [Add hardware guide to knowledge base by dngray · Pull Request #2268 · privacyguides/privacyguides.org · GitHub](https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/pull/2268) will be to discuss some of the things you should be looking for.
