rot, I doubt the MNOs would take issue with a branded device that they sell containing a TPM that they take ownership of, that they supply the device with apps, including wallet apps, that those apps use the TPM that they own to authenticate the actions of that device and so on ... it's not the TPM per se, it is whether the MNOs allow e.g. Wave to administer the TPM, provision e.g. wallet apps and so on. That the MNOs stand passively while Wave helps create an E2100-like world that steps between the device and the MNO to capture all sorts of applet hosting/switching/payment activity is what I think alea has long been observing as an obstacle. In one case the MNO is part of the commerce, in the other they are a bitpipe. BICBW
The above content is my opinion.
