Hardware that respects my freedom?

Yep.

I think one of the reasons IC manufacturers don't publish their designs is to prevent being sued for patent infringement. Since IC designs are already protected by copyright, maybe it would be a good idea to change the law so that ICs become unpatentable (the way software is should be is should be). Actually, to give manufacturers an incentive to open their sources, maybe the law could only grant IC patent immunity for ICs whose full sources have been published.
