Does hardware affect data privacy on different operating sys

[LillianFelly]

Many wonder about this question: What is the short and long answer? Can hardware, like CPUs, collect private information such as contacts, passwords, and visited websites, similar to how Windows can?

Is it accurate that it doesn't matter (as some argue) whether you use omeglz online2yu Windows or Fedora Linux if the hardware is not open like RISC-V? Are there any other factors to consider regarding this issue?
