I've seen lots of discussion about the benefits on HN.
But attestation really is fundamentally opposed to freedom. It allows someone else to dictate how you use your own machines. So, the debate necessarily revolves around whether or not it's worth it to give some freedom up for this.
Some people will say it is, others will say it's not.
> yet no one discusses how freedom and attestation might coexist
How could they coexist? I honestly don't see it, but that's likely a result of my own lack of imagination.
