title: How is Censored Libreboot implemented (ie. censored)?
x-toc-enable: true
...
Introduction
============
For more context, please read the [Censored Libreboot c20230710 release
announcement](https://libreboot.org/news/censored-libreboot20230710.html)
*Censored Libreboot* is a glimpse of the state Libreboot would
be in, if it had never adopted the
[Binary Blob Reduction Policy](https://libreboot.org/news/policy.html). In
order to do this, many pages, and sources of information, were removed or
heavily re-worded (censored) in this version, compared to regular Libreboot. The
censored information/code would have never been permitted, under Libreboot's
previous [Binary Blob Extermination Policy](https://web.archive.org/web/20221107235850/https://libreboot.org/news/policy.html)
Support for many mainboards has been removed, in this censored version. The
website that you're reading
is based on the regular Libreboot website at the time of the
[Libreboot 20230625 release](https://libreboot.org/news/libreboot20230625.html).
Changes made in *Censored Libreboot*
====================================
Almost all of the website changes can be seen here, in this diff:
<https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbwww/commit/23bf3b4c3d9473fd3fa6ee80907076667ea28ae7>
The changes are so vast (about 8000 lines of text removed), that not all of them
show by default in the above link, but you can click "Show More" at the bottom
of that page. Codeberg is Libreboot's hosting provider for Git repositories, and
the website is hosted in Git.
For a list of code changes, you can refer to the [Censored Libreboot c20230710
release announcement](https://libreboot.org/news/censored-libreboot20230710.html)
The above link, and this page, demonstrate the *damage* that could be done to
Libreboot, in the name of cult-like ideological purity. Libreboot's policy is
simply to help as many people as possible install coreboot, with as few (or no)
binary blobs as possible.
