Web Environment Integrity. Eventually your hardware will rat you out via attestation.

And you think nobody (professional hackers?) can put together a "virtual TPM" that falsifies real hardware info? I think there are much simpler solutions, but the big tech wants to retain the control.
the whole point of TPM is that you cannot do it. And it's why windows 11 requires a modern TPM.

It's a travesty of modern computing. As an owner of hardware, i must be completely 100% able to control all aspect of it, and TPM is one aspect for which you are gated out.

Oh I can think of dystopian arrangements between Cloudflare, Google, Intel and AMD that'll fix that.
