You don't like security? How is Trusted Platform Module part of their "control ratchet"?
- kd913 5y agoThe security arguments are dubious at best. Seems more closer to direct vendor/platform lock-in. Games like Valorant now require a TPM 2.0 chip to run. Why? It's a videogame? Why does it need to be locked down to Windows only. How long before all sorts of software get vendor locked in like this? Same kind of bs that happens on Android, safetynet and root. How is this not a ratchet for vendor control? Also screw security if it means planned obsolescence. Microsoft has basically declared that every machine before 8th gen Intel and Zen 2 as obsolete in 5 years time. Why? Those machines are perfectly usable and fast.
