PC bootloader is totally insecure.

A good thing, IMHO.

"Insecurity is freedom."

"Those who give up freedom for security deserve neither."




Aren’t these quotes contextual?

I’m sure most people are prepared to give up the freedom of easy access to their house in order to require access with a key, as a fair trade off of security.


If you bought a house, you own the keys.

That isn't the case with these locked-down systems.
