Oh I mean I noticed but everyone just called me insane.

Microsoft has yet to explain how or why the lapse occurred.

Because the NSA told them to have that lapse.

Thus they literally cannot legally tell you, that would be a breach of national security.

... are tech writers really this naive?

How is this not obvious?

They're backdoors. It's a lock that's 'secretly' broken, on purpose.

Duh?

This is why I haven't trusted the TPM/UEFI & Secure Boot Ecosystem and refused to upgrade my Windows 10 installs to 11 but 10 LTSC, not to mention after a decade of health problems that kept me from using Linux which I had been dabbling in for a few years and using Linux based tools professionally, was one of the reasons that I said " $&#* it, and if I am going to have to spend all this time hacking around my Windows OS to keep it usable and local, I may as well break down and move to Linux!!!".
