    Signal data will be encrypted if your disk is also encrypted.

    True.

    and you don’t have any type of verified boot process

    How motherboard refusing to boot from another drive would protect anything?

        Well, yes. By refusing to boot. It can’t do anything if motherboard is replaced.

              If the hardware signatures don’t match, it wont boot without giving a warning. If the TPM/Secure Enclave is replaced/removed/modified, it will not boot without giving a warning.

                If the hardware signatures don’t match

                Compromised hardware will say it is same hardware

                If the TPM/Secure Enclave is replaced/removed/modified, it will not boot without giving a warning.

                Compromised hardware controls execution of software. Warning is done in software. Conpromised hardware won’t let it happen.

                    Compromised hardware can’t create new signatures, but it doesn’t matter because it controls execution of software and can skip any checks.
