i think they will. or worse yet they can make it without bios at all just device tree and all that garbage that phones do. then make it subsction based,filled with ai,cloud streamed only. no apps outside store. but thats too much orwellian stuff for now,i think what will happen is the locking bios thing for now.

what do you think?

    I want to push back on this part:

    Only if Microsoft acquires a major CPU chipmaker.

    In the USA, and other parts of the world, a small number of Billionaires are buying up everything. A small number of wealthy people could each own a part of the supply chain and for it on the vast majority.

    For extra enforcement, add in a legal or cultural push for reporting or shunning violators through the media companies owned by that same group.
