Abstract :
The Trusted Computing Platform Alliance (TCPA) specification is a new computing platform for the next century that will provide for improved trust in the PC platform. Improving information security is an important and timely goal, but not at the cost of further weakening fair use doctrine, encouraging anticompetitive behavior, or eliminating privacy. Unfortunately, the current specification does not meet this standard.
