The second CPU would be a #TrustedPlatformModule, a brute-simple system-on-a-chip designed to be off-limits to modification, even by its owner (that is, you).

The #TPM would ship with a limited suite of simple programs it could run, each thoroughly audited for bugs, as well as secret cryptographic signing keys that you were not permitted to extract.

At core, here's what they envision: inside your computer, they will nest *another* computer, one that is designed to run a very simple set of programs, none of which can be altered once it leaves the factory. This computer - either a whole separate chip called a "#TrustedPlatformModule" or a region of your main processor called a #SecureEnclave - can tally observations about your computer: which operating system, modules and programs it's running.
