> It's mind boggingly stupid that they lock down apps like this, when you can just open the thing in a website anyway. I can use my bank on some linux distro, crazy that they trust me since it is not Windows - the truly secure OS!

I'm worried the day will come when some sites will require, even on a computer, a full-chain verification from the bootloader to the OS, all the way down to the browser. By requiring that each of these elements be digitally signed so that if you're not on a "secure" platform, from the bootloader to the browser, sites such as home banking could restrict access. Imagine not being able to login to your home banking because your linux box is rooted.

Btw, the good old days of modding are gone...
