Summary: Microsoft's helper (whom Microsoft wanted to hire) sees the employer down from over $10 to just $1 (it was over $17 just about a year ago) and says he’s “not afraid of being unemployed in the near future.” (Another post about Microsoft’s plagiarism enablers and about TPM2). For those who don’t know (or forgot) he has been the key individual instrumental in promoting UEFI ‘secure boot’, in effect rendering BSD and GNU/Linux hard to defend in antitrust complaints against Microsoft. He was laying the TPM foundations/traps (under the guise of ‘security’), effectively dooming prospects of broader adoption of alternatives to Windows.
