Am not even sure they are using TPM the way it's meant to be used. I have TPM on my laptop and to be honest I was too lazy to feed its random number generator to my system to increase entropy. Average Joe uses machine to browse Facebook and watch porn, not generate keys for keeping state secrets.
I completely missed the idea of fingerprinting. That'll be the most likely use.
