Disappointing announcement. M4 brings a significant uplift over M3, and the ST performance of the M3 Ultra will be significantly worse than the M4 Max.
Even for its intended AI audience, the ISA additions in M4 brought significant uplift.
Are they waiting to put M4 Ultra into the Mac Pro?
Re:The GPU, not the TPM, is the root of hardware DRM

Depends on your definition. If you count video game anti-cheating software as DRM, the answer is yes. Apart from that, I’ve only currently seen TPMs used as a hardware identifier (in the same way a monitor serial is) for software licensing. The capability does exist however.

This exact situation happened with Roblox - they shut down then hired the biggest cheat developers for their game. Kinda funny.

Not particularly relevant due to lawsuits involving game cheating, where the circumstances are very similar.
Beeper is lucky they weren't sued under the DMCA anti-circumvention clause, as they clearly were bypassing the technological measures Apple uses to prevent genuine devices from connecting to iMessage & Apple services.
