As far as I understand this only affects ARM binaries. I’m currently unable to find an authoritative source for that, since Apple seems to have removed the release notes most people link to. See for example: https://mjtsai.com/blog/2020/08/19/apple-silicon-macs-to-require-signed-code/

The issue related to that in the go repo is quite informative: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/42684
