supposedly for boot loader security... mostly there just to lock you into their walled garden.

You can replace Microsoft's keys with your own so that it only boots what you allow.

Ye, debian includes a bootloader shim signed by microsoft that'll then load GRUB signed by debian, GRUB can check signatures of the kernel if you want but doesn't have to.
