Nice idea, then they want to make a quick little kernel module, oops, you secure booted, this is not your system, can't load...

Since LLMs have been so successful at finding exploits it's been clearer than ever that the people so obsessed with enshittifying every system with ineffective (other than pissing you off and wasting your time) "secure boot" functionality were really just too ignorant to succeed at actual novel security work, so they focused on this make believe crap. Well, glad that's over.
