New Chrome feature aims to stop hackers from using stolen cookies

Doesn't this mean that a 3rd party tracking cookie is now a cryptographic proof that device A traversed sites X Y Z in session N?

This is so fucked. Anyone trying to do any web scraping will be totally hosed. If this happens it could be one of the most bold gains by site-operators over web users ever.

The existence of the TPM is a terrifying capability that puts computing deliberately beyond the reach of the operator. It hands the computer over to coders. So many upsides for regular use, but what a sad sad sad forever ratcheting of the War on General Purpose Computing it enables.

I'm fairly convinced we should make TPMs that have a special lower rung security offering that lets them see and do whatever. Make the user have to boot a custom USB stick to access it, sign in in blood, whatever weird scheme you please, but locking users out of their own secrets absolutely seems malicious & malignant; this proposal is a great example of what a blood curdling infernal machine TPM can be.
