Also not true. Someone just needed to write Linux drivers for that hardware.

  No, Apple’s security coprocessors were not designed to be unlocked (but now can, via checkra1n).

    The thing that initially kept Linux from installing on those Macs was the lack of a driver for the SSD controller which is located on that T1/T2 chip. https://t2linux.org/ https://t2linux.org/

      Developing a SSD driver does not require unlocking the device, though.

        We're talking about the ability to install Linux on the hardware. The drivers to do so exist now.
