Do people realize what they are doing here? I'm happy not touching my Windows kernel, stuff generally just works. Stuff
never just works on Linux. And now the last time I tried to load a kernel module I had built for my Ubuntu system, it refused because, duh, it wasn't signed by some UEFI key I had never even seen. So now of course,
the Ubuntu is fucking gone. Because it makes it impossible to do things that on Linux are still a monthly requirement.
Not to mention the impact this stuff has on kernel and driver development. Even Windows you can just boot into a development mode and it might scream at you on the desktop, but it will allow you to modify your system as you wish. I wasted a few hours when that Ubuntu thing happened to figure out where that switch was and didn't find it.
Right now, this should be strictly the domain of Google and Amazon that can actually have a trusted chain from bootloader to userland. Not enabled on any vanilla Ubuntu because hey, we detected UEFI!
