shim / MS updates



Recent Windows updates caused certain bootloaders to make the blacklist, I
just had an argument that went like: why wasn't there a shim update when MS
announced this in April?

And then someone kept insisting that when the Secure Boot feature was designed
Linux distributors did not name an authority for signing and thus it was
their own fault. Sounds wrong to me as usually MS strongarms the rest of the
world out of platform control ans I suspect much the same happened with
Secure Boot, but I wouldn't know.
Does someone know how this went politically "back then"?
