It's because tpms are small and have small storage. The outrageous "its a secret cabal" voices are a prime example of what people cook up when faced with something they cant explain due to ignorance but feel the need to have an answer. Its as outrageous as a Republican saying "Q did it."
- Dylan16807 3y agoWondering if something was requested by law enforcement isn't implying a cabal, chill. Also a couple kilobytes of flash costs basically nothing. And you could hash keys over a certain length, which is much better than having such a short limit on a human-typed string.
- bootsmann 3y agoA couple of kilobytes of flash also doesn't come with the protections the tpm offers (or at least is supposed to offer, considering the article in the OP)
- salawat 3y agoIf you'd like to provide schemata, open standards and source code for them, then don't keep the class waiting. Don't/can't? Then you're a fool trusting someone else to do something you yourself cannot inspect. Then again, most people seem to be oddly fine with that. I am not of that number.

- jasonjayr 3y agoSure they are small little embedded chips, supposedly physically hardened from tampering. but argon2($string_of_any_length) should produce a fixed-length byte string, no?
