>Microsoft creates Secure Boot backdoor, leaks golden keys
>Microsoft has created a backdoor in Secure Boot, the security feature designed to ensure that a device can only run the operating system that it is meant to. And, to make matters worse, it has just accidentally leaked the "golden keys" needed to bypass it.

Who gives a shit?
You guys know it covers the infrared, right? It's not just about having the image not come up on their end, but also to avoid any harmful signals that might occur from the infrared going haywire.
Source: Dropped my phone in the toilet and it started making all kinds of noise. So I covered it and it gets hot now but it's not annoying anymore.
What the hell are you responding to?

>implying i use secureboot.
Is there anything that doesn't have a goddamn backdoor?
Give it time.
The only things you would be able to trust will be written from the little guys who are not interested in money at all and adhere to free software.
Can we still buy laptops without an OS? I got my HP with FreeDOS and in the BIOS it says non-Windows system.
Is the future completely fucked?
Would putting tape over the mic really help?
Flash your BIOS

My house.

>not affecting Windows 7
Nobody cares.
If you do it correctly then yes, try recording yourself while speaking into a taped microphone (or just put your hand/finger over it). If you hear yourself talk then move slightly away from it and repeat. The tape significantly lowers how far you can be heard from, unless you're yelling you won't be heard even while sitting next to your laptop.
