This week in Linux, we have a lot of news to cover. We have some good news and some bad news. Well, people like to start with bad news first, I guess. So there is a fiasco happening with Secure Boot and how it may be affecting Linux users. Also, the EU is proposing a law that is pretty close to being passed that is very scary and a step towards mass surveillance. We'll talk about that. Then also we have some good news and that the Pebble watches are back and we have some beta releases from Linux Mint and Ubuntu Touch as well as SyncThing is back, which is a really cool tool to sync your files across multiple devices.
