+<p>For a computer to be fully at your service, it should come with
+documentation of all the interfaces intended for software running in
+the computer to use to control the computer.  A documentation gap as
+such doesn't mean the computer is actively disloyal, but does mean
+there are some aspect of it that are not at your service.  Depending
+on what that aspect does, this might or might not be a real problem.</p>
