We are seeing the dark side of "Security as a Service". When Microsoft simplifies the signing pipeline (like with Trusted Signing), they also centralize the point of failure. The fact that a FOSS pillar like VeraCrypt can be sidelined due to what looks like an automated account flagging issue with no path to human arbitration shows that the current system is too fragile for critical infrastructure. Secure Boot is a great security feature, but it shouldnt be used as a tool for vendor lock in through administrative incompetence
