I'd like to ask you to reconsider that opinion.

Secure Boot is mandated by Microsoft to provide Microsoft and
Microsoft's customers (OEMs) security, and I think it's pretty
effective.

But Secure Boot is also related to the security of individual computers
and computer users, because it enables Microsoft and OEMs to establish
a controllable, reliable and thus trustable chain of software from reset
to desktop.

Most people who buy computers are happy, because controlling the computer
isn't as important as using the desktop, which I think is fine.
