There are some speculations about TPM uncontrollably sending data to manufacturer servers if a laptop has any Internet connection. Others say it’s not intended/capable of that, like this answer for example (which is 5 years old though).
Lemmy, what do you say?

This is fake
Is this windows 11 and onward? Can you override it? Because it might also not be an unauthorized copy.

Looks bad enough. But what’s TPM role in this?
Microsoft Pluton is a kind of TPM with additional features:

Funnily enough, they don’t advertise preventing users from opening unapproved media files as a feature. So that could either mean they’re sneaking it in, or that the image is not genuine.
