It is unclear what you mean with "FSF supports Secure Boot" as FSF is
doing campaign on the subject of Restricted Boot. 

Please see the campaign to petition computer makers:
https://www.fsf.org/campaigns/secure-boot-vs-restricted-boot/statement/stand-up-for-your-freedom-to-install-free-software

Official position of FSF on the Restricted Boot is here:
