You’ve created a new topic but it really ends up being the same discussion as the previous one (as evidenced by the replies you’ve got here so far), so I’ll be merging it back into the original topic.
“Delivering in a guaranteed secure state” instead of simply having a tamper-evident or generally verifiable device (already part of the long-term roadmap), as others pointed out, has never been done. No company can claim with a straight face to deliver a “guaranteed secure” device so far. Unless you’re having Todd personally hand-deliver it to your door and prove his identity with a DNA test or something, and he assembled it himself down to the last resistor.
Purism tries to push for general security, privacy and software freedom for the greater public, and I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect a guaranteed protection against a government, especially at this early stage. Personally speaking, I think that if a government is out to get you, they will get you: even if your hardware and encryption was flawless, they could just lock you up and torture you with a $5 crowbar until you give up.
That doesn’t invalidate Purism’s mission, nor does it make it a less compelling solution against criminals (unless the criminals you want to defend against have government-like resources + expertise + dedication to track you… in which case, say hi to the Don for me).
