Please don't take me wrong, I don't mean to say that everything the TCG
has produced is encumbered by evilness. As I see it, my position is just:
- I don't like to discuss about "bundle terms", because they mean so
many things at the same time, and they might mix pure evil with rather
useful features.
- Remote attestation is a feature which can only be used for nasty
purposes _and_ it affects everyone (by network effects) rather than
just those who use it.
- There's a tendency to believe adding checks and chains of trust increases
security without asking oneself enough questions (e.g. do I trust the
root of that chain?).
