Ignoring your vibe for conspiracy theory, I was personally looking forward to a solution like secure boot.
Imagine securing your entire system with something like Truecrypt, using multiple layers of encryption, only to be defeated by a 1KB bootloader that performs Man in the Middle attack.
- throwaway2048 14y agothe idea of a verfied boot does not imply "UEFI secure boot" where microsoft holds the keys to access your hardware.
- nivla 14y agoYes it does to a good extend. Under your analogy, the key to internet would be held by VeriSign, since all SSL signing must chain back to their signature. The key better be held by a company that I can hold responsible for in court if something were to goes wrong, than some random layman.
