Well, here I'll expect one. :-)
As there is increasing pressure to keep
records of Internet use, there will be a counter-move to use VPN's
which promise to keep no records. Which will lead to legal orders
that records be kept, with no notification to those being tracked.
Enter secure remote attestation - rendering it impossible for an
appropriately defined non-logging implementation to start logging
without giving this fact away.
Maybe it'll be the pirates who make the first large-scale use of those
TPM's!
