So-called 'Trusted Computing' is a back door for the NSA." > >"According to leaked internal documents from the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) that Die Zeit obtained, IT experts figured out that Windows 8, the touch-screen enabled, super-duper, but sales-challenged Microsoft operating system is outright dangerous for data security. It allows Microsoft to control the computer remotely through a built-in backdoor. Keys to that backdoor are likely accessible to the NSA - and in an unintended ironic twist, perhaps even to the Chinese." > >http://blogs.computerworlduk.com/open-enterprise/2013/08/german-government-warns-of-windows-8-loss-of-control/index.htm
