    It is, but as far as I understand, you can disable some of it depending on your coreboot/libreboot setup.

    Coreboot is open source, but when you build the rom for your machine, you have to pack in closed source blobs for Intel me, and any other proprietary parts of the chip.

    I'm not up to date on current happenings with libreboot, but the goal there was to get it working 100% open source, without closed source blobs.
