Secure Boot is a feature that many PC users aren’t aware of, but the reality is that unlike its name, it actually makes your PC more unsafe. Secure Boot is also a requirement to run newer versions of Windows, and it pretty much provides a lot of programs with the ability to execute different kinds of administration level code in the background. Despite it being a countermeasure against boot sector attacks that can overwrite your kernel, Secure Boot is so sloppily implemented by Microsoft that it becomes a threat. We at Infinite Start will cover why people dislikes this requirement.
Secure Boot ain’t really secure
To play a game, you need to give access to a core part of your PC, yes, this is another one that uses a Kernel Level spyware to “prevent cheating”, a thing that always worked because cheaters aren’t totally flying around in every game EA ever dropped. By telling people that they are doing it to prevent cheaters, they are lulled into a false sense of security and their data gets stolen by EA Games and other companies. The secure boot requirement isn’t just a coincidence, but a carefully crafted plan to access more.
There’s ways to stay safe however, you can just use Linux or try to boot the game directly from a Steam Deck, maybe it won’t work however, after all, Live Service games are a fad that became outdated and nobody is interested in them anymore. There’s thousands of games one can play if they use their time wisely, a ton of single player experiences that are far more valuable that some lobby points or whatever they dangle on front of innocent gamers who are casual. Real gamers were born with single player games and will die with single player games. So maybe you should consider to avoid Battlefield 6, as it is yet another Anti-Cheat Trojan.
