A very long read, with a lot of noise, that might be refreshing, but I personally did not like.
Some facts that I learned by reading this article:
"Now, for ARM machines, the requirements are significantly more evil: they state exactly the opposite, that it must not be possible to disable Secure Boot and it must not be possible for the system owner to change the trusted keys. This is bad and wrong. It makes Microsoft-certified ARM systems into a closed shop. But it’s worth noting it’s no more bad or wrong than most other major ARM platforms. Apple locks down the bootloader on all iDevices, and most Android devices also ship with locked bootloaders."
My understanding is that it might become bad for Linux on ARM devices. How comes that there was no big reaction to this?
