From the article mentioned in the original post:
Microsoft's practice is facilitated by the UEFI, or Unified Extensible
Firmware Interface, which allows a manufacturer to lock down the boot
process so that it will only work on their specified conditions.
What's to keep Microsoft from telling a manufacturer they must lock down
the machine so no other operating system will boot on it if they want
licenses to install windows on their machines?

of the article which leads you to believe that.
BL, there's a lot of misinformation about this. I don't think it's
anything to be concerned about.
