EFF's trusted computing guru sums up MSFT's lockware strategy

Donna sez, "Seth Schoen, EFF's trusted computing guru, attended this year's Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) to find out. In a four-part series of updates on Microsoft's security and lockware strategy for Windows, Schoen looks at how the latest developments will affect your ability to stay in the driver's seat of your own PC."

Part 1: Microsoft Trusted Computing Updates
Part 2: The Dangers of Device Authentication
Part 3: Protected Media Path, Component Revocation, Windows Driver Lockdown
Part 4: Microsoft Sells Out the Public on CGMS-A
