They apparently focused on making the secure boot in UEFI their way to cast out Open Source OSes from booting without a key or disable the secure boot thing.  If things sadly continue in decline with regards to SCOTUS, anything can happen :(  see (1), (2) and (3) and in case the bad times(economic) continue then (4) may happen and then they (EU) will not be able to stop it from happening :(

In a perfect world the PEOPLE would stop Microsoft! We've seen it in 
history time & time again, the masses get to "that point" of having had 
ENOUGH!....and they proceed to do what NEEDS to be done to set the 
imbalance of the order of things back in order! Whether this means a 
boycott, a petition, or something more drastic (vandalism, destruction 
of property etc.) SOMETHING gets done UNTIL the "idiots-in-charge" 
finally get the picture and change the policy or what-have-you to 
something that all can live with and abide by!
