For each major brand of cell phone: where can one find (possibly encrypted) full ROMs and the public keys in eFuse or software to read this out?
Instead of emulating a Linux desktop on top of Android, I think many would prefer running Linux natively. Yes that would require driver support. Indeed nobody would waste their time developing drivers if one can not even test them without being able to sign with the private key corresponding the eFuse / silicon ROM public keys.
A benevolent but for sake of argument hypothetical cryptographer that can solve widely used mathematical challenges, might desire to liberate the human population. A declaration of computational independence. Those who look forward to liberty of computation, may collect and assemble a publically accessible database of ROM's public keys, etc. and may encourage said hypothetical cryptographer to risk a single round release of the corresponding private keys.
