Savitech USB audio drivers install a new root CA certificate
I am not saddened by this event, but by the fact that such occurrences will only add momentum to the movement to lock down computing devices and take freedom away from their users:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=12061320" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=12061320</a><p>Those worrying about security should remember that device drivers already run in ring 0 and can do anything they damn well please.<p>Thus I say: Good on Savitech for not being afraid to rebel against; and fuckings to the corporatocracy that is certificate authorities and the authoritarian security industry.
