    They’re waiting until all the products in the wild can be locked down.

    Right now, they’re struggling to get people.to jump to Windows 11, and people are hoarding their old computers. They want all the products that don’t have TPM or its equivalent to be outmoded before they remove the mask.

      Maybe. In my experience business isn’t that patient.

      A TPM is otherwise a good thing. It can extend cryptographic capabilities and the overall security stance of the system.

      But I digress. I will reserve judgement for now. Time will tell either way, and I don’t think anyone will feel like gloating if they start to lock it down like you believe they will.
