Or maybe they will launch Win 12 with optional TPM support.

Imho making the OS(es) TPM only cannot be good for their business, many people are still on Win 10 with no intention to switch, since their motheboard does not support TPM and do not want to upgrade PC / waste PCI-E slot on TPM extension.

    Your PC is already identifiable by the license key, the hardware installed, and you signing in with a Microsoft Account. If you’re that worried about gummint tracking or something, you shouldn’t even be gaming on your PC, as games and game stores have a lot of data to leak about you and what you’re doing on the PC.

      i don’t sign-in to my systems with a microsoft account. hell, i don’t even have one. nowadays, i dunno if i could even get one–and maintain it, as i do not have, nor want, an sms-capable or ‘smart’ phone. they don’t do ‘verification’ bullshit by voice anymore, just sms.
