There&#x27;s a tradeoff that seems to be missed in security discussions quite often - the more secure something gets, the less useful it is. At the extreme end, a perfectly secure system is also perfectly useless.<p>I personally also dislike the direction where things are going. I get that maybe most people don&#x27;t actually need general-purpose computers, they want glorified web browsers instead. But I&#x27;m afraid, given how the market behaves, that this will mean there won&#x27;t be <i>any</i> non-locked computers available at all, or even if, they won&#x27;t be able to interoperate with their &quot;dumber&quot; counterparts for general population.
