The Linux security model was designed for a time when you had multiple humans sharing one machine, and every program either came from the OS, or was sourced from a reputable origin. It's almost useless in the current landscape. Some efforts like Flatpak, Wayland, Pipewire, and immutable OSs are starting to improve things, but it still seems like we are years away from having the level of security MacOS had a long time ago. And I just can't see how any security measure which requires hardware can come to Linux desktop. |

Why? TPM works just fine. Secure Boot is perfectly usable on most OSes. Hell, even fprintd supports biometric authentication if you're a weirdo. Nothing inherently stops this stuff from being made, certainly not the kernel.
All hardware-based security measures will probably never be supported by Linux, but if your benchmark for disbelief is "any" then boy have I got a boat to sell you!
