Phoronix just repeated false claims and reproduced Microsoft's marketing material with laughable openwashing:

Summary: The Linux Foundation helps undermine real security by letting truly untrustworthy companies lock systems down (via OCP, a Microsoft front group which pretends to be vendor-neutral), just like it did for IBM with TPM/2

Ignore the scapegoat, focus on who is a proponent for imperial back doors. The Linux Foundation is fronting for them.
