OK, at first i was a bit concerned that i would be off topic in the Packaging system thread, but i have read so much misinformed fear-mongering, that i decide to clear this up with it's own thread.
First, let me be the first to say i am not the person to explain TPM technology or crypto primitives. That said, any one should recognize an illogical argument that goes along these lines: "Crypto primitives such as encryption allow "locking" information and thus restricting access to it." It does not mean we should abandon encryption or let arbitrary entities lock our info! IMO, the amplitude of potential TPM-nightmare scenarios should give a clue about the strength of the technology. IE: If it can do that in the "wrong-hands," what can it do in the right?
