Been very excited about this since he started blogging about the development. Nearly everything about the hardware is open source. The prices for finished products seem pretty reasonable as well.

Crowd-funding through crowdsupply:

I suppose the few remaining things that could spy on you are your storage devices (SSD, sd cards, etc)... or maybe that can be circumvented with software? You certainly have better control over data flow with a fully open source system.

Anyway, I have no affiliation with those guys, I just read about the crowdfunding campaign on Hackaday and decided to share. There's usually some healthy discussion (not to mention many apps and programs) on bitcointalk about helping you keep your private key data safe, and being able to trust your hardware is the next big step toward a fully secure bitcoin usage environment.
