Microsoft has officially announced its intent to move security measures out of the kernel, following the Crowdstrike disaster a few short months ago. The removal of kernel access for security solutions would likely revolutionise running Windows games on the Steam Deck and other Linux systems.

    If it works on Linux, I’m fine with it, since I’m not cheating. Just like hardware attestation works on GrapheneOS, because it doesn’t decrease the security of Android, in fact, it greatly improves it.

      It’s about control. And monopolies love control (governments, too). If we let them, they’ll take it and then we’re screwed.

        Could you elaborate? I don’t really see how a hardware attestation feature would take away any of your control? Android phones have had it for a long time, and even Google still allows you to install alternative operating systems on their Pixel phones. GrapheneOS even uses the hardware attestation feature to your benefit, by including the Auditor app, which you can use to verify the integrity of your device.
