But in a few years, governments will be able to confidently claim that any device not running in so-called Secure Boot mode is a cyber-security risk and can't be allowed online. Similarly, they'll claim that all devices must either only run apps from "approved" app stores, or have a system like Apple's "Gatekeeper" which checks every binary you try to run against a central blacklist of forbidden apps. Then you can kiss goodbye to P2P downloading, E2EE messengers, Tor, cryptocurrencies, and VPNs (unless those apps also implement blacklisting/whitelisting, or their developers will face criminal liability for what users do with them).
