Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols: Does Windows 8 help the government to spy on us?

Windows 8 and TMP said to combine to permit NSA spying on our computers

And, oh my, no, the NSA or some other government agency could never, ever get into your computer or tablet via this technology pairing! Some Microsoft defenders even claim that the explanation from Germany's Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) (German-language article) about what's going on with Windows 8 and TPM 2.0 makes it clear that there's no real danger from using the pair in combination.

Really? They're not reading the same memo I'm reading.
