Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0, meaning that most computers that are not within 5 years old will not be able to run it. But TPM 2.0 carries with it some privacy challenges that take away more control over your computer to hand it to the tech companies who seek to control us. So when Windows 11 comes, will you be buying new hardware to replace a computer that works just fine, or will you just switch to Linux?
