[liberationtech] advice on securing a new computer

[Douglas Lucas]

What about checking hardware? There's a lot of discussion about
protecting against software threats, but not as much about hardware.

What should a person do to check a brand-new laptop for hardware
keyloggers or other threats?

The author of this page - http://virus.org.ua/unix/keylog/klog.htm -
claims to have found a hardware keylogger in a nearly brand-new Dell
laptop. The author even submitted a FOIA about it.
