    Good. TPM firmware is a high-value attack surface that, if penetrated, gives the attacker complete and irreversible control over the entire machine. It’s also proprietary code and only receives security updates for a small fraction of its service life, so it’s most likely riddled with vulnerabilities. It should be disabled, as much as possible, if you at all value the security of your system.
