This post is misleading (and apparently fake?) for a lot of reasons.
But
Pretty gross, but should be easy enough to avoid by just not buying computers with that processor.
Not really. TPM 2 (?) is already (effectively) a requirement for Windows 11. Yes, you can (probably) still choose to buy a CPU and Mobo that don’t support it but there is zero incentive for manufacturers to make those going forward. Why would Intel or AMD or Gigabyte or whatever make a device that can’t install the OS that the vast majority of their customers will want to use? And Windows 10 will be EOL sooner than later.
Assuming it hasn’t already happened (and it probably has, but I just can’t be bothered to check), there will be no non-TPM 2.0 options in the very near future. And that will extend to whatever hardware Pluton and whatever else require.
