Lazy Liars Loaded with bullshit
"Meanwhile, manufacturers complain doing signature verification of firmware code is tricky in embedded systems and other low-end or resource-constrained gadgets."
If you can do 10GB ethernet, you have the horsepower to do signature VERIFICATION. Having built systems with secure boot that go out into the field and run for 20 years on a pair of batteries, I bet them $1m they can too. That was 8 years ago and the processors I worked with cost $1.50.
