Clear Linux* - fast & secure distro from Intel (who invented UEFI) after 4y of developing still don't have Secure Boot support.

A simple question at thier official community forum has sparked a new holy "Secure Boot" war.

There's conflicting opinions and knowledge, real Clear Linux developer(s), security/linux experts came into the thread.

It ended (is it?) with another separate post with many arguments and link to an interview with Linus Torvalds, who generally agreed that Secure Boot is good idea (with right usage).
