>Secure boot also doesn't rely on Microsoft... OTOH, once the original Microsoft-signed SecureBoot keys for both Windows and Linux became compromised in recent years, triggering the need to blacklist those keys in everyone's firmware which requires an unprecedented worldwide need for a timely firmware update only if available from the original motherboard manufacturer, along with corresponding OS updates to match, neither of which has been fully accomplished yet, there was no-one to rely on other than Microsoft to mitigate the snafu. More than just amusing, to "quote" Ballmer: "This is by design." |
