Fuck them both. Lenovo is the company that keeps shipping their laptops with spyware in the firmware.

    So being a Lenovo owner, I read through this article from 2022, and it doesn't mention anything about spyware being embedded in the UEFI. It's about a security vulnerability that was patched pretty much right away that could have given someone access to install malware, but besides the fuckup where the drivers from manufacturing were still included, there's nothing about Lenovo hiding spyware in their firmware.

    Anything more recent?
