TPM is a dedicated chip or firmware enabling hardware-level security, housing encryption keys, certificates, passwords, and sensitive data, “and shielding them from unauthorized access,” Microsoft senior product manager Steven Hosking wrote last month, declaring TPM 2.0 to be “a non-negotiable standard for the future of Windows.”
Wouldn’t urging people to stop using windows and instead use Linux be a more appropriate suggestion? Sure, GH is MS, but GH isn’t what is going to allegedly require TPM 2. Are we also supposed to stop playing Xbox because MS owns that too?
