Sorry but this whole thing is just snake-oil.
You can verify and sign your whole trust chain down to the last shared library and it doesn’t matter when you don’t know what the binary blobs on your TPM / CPU / BIOS / NIC are doing.
The only guarantee to a secure system is openness an all of that signing won’t help you there.


I don’t trust Microsoft, why should I start trusting IBM/Canonical or Poettering now.
If the possibility is there they will happily lock you out of your own hardware.
They feel that they don’t need to fear the other ethnicities anymore. As if wielding the tools of the bourgeoisie leads to a bourgeois state.
What’s the “Han expression” for manifest-destiny?
