#2So LP is or has left Microsoft ?
>We are building cryptographically verifiable integrity into Linux systems
I wonder what that means ? It could be a good thing, but I tend to think it could be a privacy nightmare depending on who controls the keys.

Sounds like kernel mode DRM or some similarly unwanted bullshit.

The events includes a conference title "Remote Attestation of Imutable Operating Systems built on systemd", which is a bit of a clue.

It's probably built on systemd's Secure Boot + immutability support.
As said above, it's about who controls the keys. It's either building your own castle or having to live with the Ultimate TiVo.
We'll see.
