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.

    All the current major distros of linux require TPM.

    TPM prevents users from downloading random kinder eggs that install ransomware. Any business that disables TPM is crazy.

      Why do you say a TPM prevents users from running malicious software? As far as I know that’s not really what they’re used for.

      I’d like to see how you disable tpm on 2010s thinkpad where tpm don’t even exist
