“The German Government is now deeply suspicious that the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) technology built into a growing number of Windows 8 PCs and tablets is creating a gigantic back door for NSA surveillance, leaked documents have suggested. During TCG meetings, German officials appear to have expressed concern about the potential for abuse but were ‘rebuffed,’ Zeit claims. The documents also refer to the NSA having representation at the meetings and the statement ‘the NSA agrees’ in the context of leaving the technology in its current (presumably unreformed) state.”
