TL;DR
It is argued that although trusted computing has some merits, it neither provides a complete remedy nor is it likely to prevail in the PC mass market.
Abstract
The authors examine whether trusted computing is likely to remedy the relevant security problems in PCs. They argue that although trusted computing has some merits, it neither provides a complete remedy nor is it likely to prevail in the PC mass market.
