[Discuss] Class action against "Secure Boot"



I was thinking, if Microsoft gets its way, it will use what's left of 
its monopoly power to restrict access to the PC boot infrastructure. In 
principal I have no problem with a secure boot system, as long as I have 
control over what *I* allow to boot. The problem is when *I* have to ask 
or pay someone else to use *my* property the way that I want.

If this roles out and is sufficiently troublesome to freedom, do you 
think we can sue?
