You should not use the word "secure", it only checks the integrity, it doesn't guarantee any security, same as on Android. Same for "authorized" which is a bit misleading because only manufacturers can authorize modifications, not users.
- userbinator 3y agoThe same goes for the word "trusted" as it's often used, e.g. "trusted computing" and the like. Who's doing the trusting? Not the users.
- anonymous_sorry 3y agoTrusted is a warm and fuzzy sounding word. But always remember that in terms of security, trust is at best a necessary evil. Trust makes you vulnerable to abuse of that trust. "Trusted" is not equal to "trustworthy".
