Installing using the Debian installer doesn't *require* you to carry on with the firmware. You can readily remove it - especially if you use the expert install - you are not required to enable the repository in your /etc/apt/sources.list and so on. The installer does list the firmware suggested for install to enable all devices - you don't have to take that suggestion.
And if you don't, none of the evil code ever gets loaded or installed, it just sits there on the media, right?
GreetingsMarc, who likes Debian to run on the hardware people have - it saves me time to explain why Debian doesn't run.
