    I am an actual hw/fw reverse engineer and my brain hurts from having read that chatlog. The naive patching of “all occurences” of the bytes 0101 to 0000 “if found near SecureBoot strings” only worked because of pure luck, and surely made a whole lot of other things crap out.

      Technically speaking, I guess bricking a device still counts as having successfully disabling SecureBoot.
