The security researcher with a grudge against Microsoft announces more disclosures in June breaking secure boot trust affecting (at least) BitLocker, after already telling people to mark July 14.

This comes after their repositories on GitHub and GitLab have been deleted by the respective service providers.

Anyone who is interested in the source code of the exploits can find it with the TOR Browser on DarkTea (Gitea on the Dark Web)

They also say that multiple security researchers have contacted them with information regarding security issues in Windows.

Good question, I do not know. The GitHub repo removal was obviously Microsofts retalitaion, I can only think of MS pressuring GitLab, playing the "abuse" angle as a reason for the GitLab removal.
