"Trusted Computing" is here; probably BAD news

Still in NYC and have no time to write. See this story about "Trusted Computing" on Slashdot.

Don't know about TC? See this article on EFF that discusses the pros and cons. About halfway down, you'll notice one particular problem: TC is deployed to threat YOU, THE END USER as a potential "threat" to the system. That's right, you'll no longer be in charge of your own computer.

Uh, yipes.
