And this why Secure Boot can't be trusted. It is Micro$lop that signs and issues the keys.

You can use custom keys with secure boot. Any PC newer than 2015 should give you that option.

You don't have to use Microsoft's keys.

This isn't a secure boot issue. This is a bootloader issue.

Secure Boot has nothing to do with Microsoft, it's a UEFI feature.

You can enroll your own Platform Key and have complete control over the entire Secure Boot system.

I use a signed Unified Kernel Image to use Secure Boot and my machine has zero Microsoft software on it. (Arch, btw)
