Pluton seems like the next evolution of the TPM which has been around for many years. Many (most?) modern CPUs have a TPM built into the CPU already (Intel PTT and AMD fTPM) so it's not a huge change from the status quo as far as I can tell.
- ncmncm 4y agoYou are describing the "management engine", a different thing, also a problem.
- jameslao 4y agoHow so? Intel Platform Trust Technology is TPM implemented inside the CPU. Intel Management Engine is a separate thing as far as I can tell.
- naikrovek 4y agono, they're describing an fTPM. pro-privacy people always seem to lack a lot of understanding around modern security landscapes and make a lot of assumptions that aren't true anymore (if they ever were). I mean no offense, by the way, it makes me want to conceive a modern security primer for privacy advocates, because the community appears to have fallen behind a bit. like any community that focuses on one thing, that focus is often at the expense of other things.
