Ubuntu’s TPM Encryption Is a Trap. Here’s How It Will Destroy Your System.

Canonical has tied Ubuntu’s TPM encryption to a snap-based kernel that becomes permanently unupdatable if a bug surfaces. This creates a single point of failure where a routine encryption snap bug forces a full system reinstall. The very security feature that protects your data now makes your system more fragile than ever. This isn’t a bugโ€”it’s a design choice that prioritizes ecosystem lock-in over user reliability.
