    claude aside, i am more interested in starting a project to reverse engineer the binary blobs that infect the linux kernel so it would finally be 100% free

      Do you mean the firmware blobs? If so, then be aware that the firmware doesn’t run in the Linux kernel, and isn’t part of it. They get uploaded to the peripheral devices, and run there. They are often encrypted and signed, so even if you reverse engineer them, and understand what they do, you also need the private keys of the vendor to sign and/or encrypt them before the peripheral hardware accepts them…
