Remember SOPA/ACTA? If somebody is planning to have a regulation, this somebody should take care about tools which guarantee direct, not circumstantial, evidence of somebody else broke this regulation.
UEFI implements network stack so it can be a long-standing strategy. UEFI is about remote monitoring without you even knowing about it, or your corporate firewall sniffing for somebody else. You buying UEFI hardware will be a sponsor of somebody sniffing on you. What an irony. Also, UEFI will possibly take down a dozens of Linux/BSD-oriented hardware suppliers businesses because their customers will deny to run security critical tasks on UEFI hardware. Good support for stagnating world economy. IMO, it is smarter to spent on Raspberry Pi port than UEFI bullshit. And don't blame Amiga. It is UEFI free, isn't it? ;) llemikebyw wrote: > Tomas (and David and E.V.R.
