Only if you let it. You can own the means of production. I self host my daily driver LLMs in hardware in my garage.

Never given money to an LLM provider and never will. I only do work with tools I own.

Who produced the hardware though?

AMD, mostly. But with fully open drivers etc which means it has equivalent freedom to my desktop workstation.
