Against Google Web Environment Integrity with an argumentation.

Also in favor of such systems:

  • These tools might have a place within distributed systems - for example, voting machine vendors might use remote attestation to verify the configuration of their devices in the field

Also, it points out some principles:

  • Code is speech and everyone should be free to study, understand, and produce remote attestation tools.
  • but these tools should not be added to the web. Remote attestations have no place on open platforms.
  • addressing these problems can’t come before the right of technology users to choose how their computers work, or what those computers tell others about because the right to control one’s own devices is a building block of all civil rights in the digital world.

The technology solves those companies' problems, but not their users.
