• GNU Boot sent a cease and desist to Libreboot

  Following your logic I can get sued just got typing curl https://apple.com. Source: 5 months ago

• Buying an iPhone in Taiwan

  You can also get it online, Either from apple.com or Pchome or momo. Both are authorized online resellers of apple. I bought my both phone, One 3 years ago (form apple) and one just yesterday (from Pchome) and few of my friends have done the same and had no problems whatsoever till date.
