It's easy to tell people how to bypass enabling the feature, you play the slow game. They're waiting for Windows 10 to fade out too. "Oh look you've beaten TPM.. so clever" but when 90% of machines have it enabled, they will switch on DRM for Netflix and leave you unable to play things. They say you chose to tamper with DRM security and that's why you can't watch things.
In terms of conspiracy, motherboards components cost money. TPM adds risk to the operating system. They features are being shipped because they plan to use them. It's not just for the giggles.
