>They wanted to control your computer. Palladium, and other features also is about control

That level of control was already achieved on mobile. Android is the wet dream that Microsoft had with palladium and failed to execute.

I can't use my banking app on a degoogled phone. It requires an untempered, manufacturer provided rom, and it will not run on a rooted phone either. The thing is, the banking app is not a side toy for me to just check up my accounts or do bank transfers instead of using the website, it's the only tool the bank provides to allow for online payment validation. You /need/ the app to make online payments with my bank. No app, no using your credit card online at all. Want the app, need to live under google (or iOS, which is even more closed and disgusting).

Palladium is real today.
