For this you dont need TPM. Just a LUKS key in rootfs /etc. He said TPM :)

> combined with LUKS, TPM keys

Does it work? Server can reboot and use TPM to unlock rootfs? What about /boot - encrypted and tamper proof? Resists evil maid attack?

Rabbit hole, I know, but so fascinating if you solved it all :)

It all started when they took a stand against DoD on autonomous weapons and domestic mass surveillance usage. Feb 2026.

After that details don't matter, they've shown their "enemy" colours, once is enough. This is just punishment and it will continue, until they bend the knee.

> I still can't believe they killed iTunes. I used to have my entire digital music library in iTunes. Most of that was music I had ripped myself from CD ...

iTunes Match still exists, one of the handful of subs I pay for.

> Why do people say crap like this...

1. Third-party cookie blocking by default — 2003 (Safari 1.0); industry first.

2. Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP), using on-device machine learning to identify and limit cross-site trackers — 2017; industry first.

3. Storage Access API prompts for embedded third-party content (e.g., social login widgets) — 2018 (ITP 2.0); industry first (co-developed by WebKit, later adopted as a web standard).

4. Full third-party cookie blocking (no exceptions) — 2020 (ITP in Safari 13.1); industry first for a major browser.

Nope, FF is being infiltrated by adtech for last year or two. Last holdout is Safari now :)
