Could you elaborate on the ways that people are being screwed over by TPM?

I do see that the existence of both trusted and untrusted systems could exert some pressure on consumers to adopt the latter, due to the unavailability of certain services on the former (e.g. DRM, banking apps on rooted Android phones etc).

The danger here is a loss of "freedom to tinker", which I do appreciate very much, and I share that concern. But has that actually happened with TPM?
