Here's my translation into simpler English, with the caveat that I'm only about 90% sure it captures the original intent:
The article is not biased or out of date at all. Most people can't figure out how to get around "secure boot" technology, which has the effect of locking people out. Big companies, both those that make hardware and software, work together to lock ordinary people out of creating alternatives. If an independent creator were to make something good, the big companies would just make their own version, that would be just as good for most users.
Yeah, this article seems like it accurately predicted the future when it was written.
