What disturbs me most is that whenever you say the words
"trusted computing" in some environments, people's minds
shut down and they start saying "NO! We don't want to go
there!" -- the same people who, seconds before, were
listing the requirements for their next-generation computer
systems and were basically saying they needed trusted
computing platforms.

It all depends on whose requirements are being met.  I'm happy about
trusted computing if my own requirements are met.  Much less happy
if it's somebody else's, who did not pay for my computer.

I never met a computer I didn't like.
