TPM 2.0 is a must - they said, it will improve Windows Security - they said...


A PC that fails to connect to the internet is a secure PC. This should be enough information to conclude that if manufacturers were truly committed to security they would be producing amazing hardware firewalls for end users to plug their PCs into instead of messing with our system boards with varying degrees of success. The whole thing is a massive psy-op spawned out of industrial/commercial enterprise, the bottom line being profits. TPM is a simple case of the tail wagging the dog.
