The one area where the TPM architecture has gone out on a limb in the trade-off between cost and functionality is in the area of privacy - many sophisticated architectural features and layers of indirection in the design exist purely to enable online services to use TPMs without forcing the compromise of a user's privacy. In a nutshell, here's what I'm afraid of. You'll probably one day see articles on Wire, the Verge and on everyone's favorite YouStupid (YouTube) bloviating channel. I can almost see and hear the media report on it. I actually think there's some shenanigans attached to it.

Most people get 'pwned' because they simply don't know any better, they're ignorant.Īs to the TPM requirement. So I don't need that warm and fuzzy felling that comes with some privacy invading/PC destroying anti-virus product. That's why I say I have an above average knowledge in this stuff. I take full memory dumps and analyze those for shenanigans, monitor the network among other things. And no, I have never been 'hacked' by some Guy Fawkes hoodie wearing idiot or had my PC infected by malware let alone ransomware.

I actually have not used an anti-virus product since circa 2015. I just roll vastly different than others. Also, anti-virus software nowadays is an absolute bucket of rat vomit full of privacy invading code and bloat. I wouldn't call it common sense per say, but an above average understanding of tech and cybersecurity in general. It is like saying that I do not need antivirus, I have a common sense.Funny you say that because that's EXACTLY how this ship sails.
