DRM is arguably a specific use of various generic technology ranging from whitebox cryptography to trusted computing. I don't think remote attestation (or even more so its umbrella technology, trusted computing) is nearly as specifically targeted as DRM. > We have over 30 years of the world wide web and for these more than 3 decades this was never a problem. Suddenly, we "need" to create new technology that seem to be security features, but are essentially just being used for evil, thus being inherently bad. I agree that requiring remote attestation for generic web use is evil. It's way too heavy-handed an approach better reserved I still don't think this somehow outright disqualifies the technology itself. | ||
