Even with the current flimsy "What about iPhones?" defense against attestation, is there anything stopping say Microsoft from just forcing you to install a different app to use Mic…

Well, having your passkey provider blocked for doing that might stop you. https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/10407 Of course, they might just block you for not bein…

The silly part is unraid has all the pieces to do this. The btrfs file system which unraid supports for array disks could identify bitrot, and the unraid array supports virtualizin…
