Using broken encryption is quite a decent reason.
- AshamedCaptain 3y agoDefinitely not for the actual user of the device.
- raxxorraxor 3y agoSHA1 is not for encryption, it is a signature algorithm. It is considered broken because there is a faster way than simple brute force to create a collision. The currently know approach is still computationally expensive. It is correct to call it broken, but I don't see the implications for TMP at all. TPM is shitty tech in the first place in my opinion, but aside from that there is little practical relevance.
