“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.
