• Microsoft intends to kill your computer, no Secure Boot updates for you.

    Imagine following all the Micro$oft rule$, setting up your computer,
    creating a Micro$oft account and configuraing your computer to be "safe"
    with UEFI and "Secure Boot".

    Except the certificate expires in June 2026 and it won't boot after that.

    If your computer has no entitlement, it cannot get the updated certificate
    and you are shit out of luck.

    Anything 2023 forward supposedly is okay and will get updates. Before
    that? Tough.

    What if it doesn't? All your boots are belong to us data recovery
    companies.

    If this is true then there will be lawsuits. Many lawsuits.
